Even TJ must be starting to think that Qualcomm is more than a pixelation scam. <they are prepared to spend $550 billion to build mobile broadband networks, boosting global GDP by 3 percent to 4 percent over five years. > Perhaps you have also read the articles describing how, surprisingly to some, smart-phones are continuing to sell like hot cakes. Guess which company supplies patents and ASICs and software for such cyberphones. Yes, ElM, your services will be required around the world for at least another decade, building millions of LTE base stations. Huawei will no doubt get a lot of that business but I believe they don't pay pole climbers quite as much as did the GSM Cartel. But "climbing" is going to become redundant. Increasingly, base stations are little devices which require little more than small antennas on top of dual function light poles. Zenbu doesn't bother with poles at all = just plug the base station into the modem in the office. Easy peasy. Telecom NZ with their poles charges $8 a megabyte. Zenbu charges 10c a megabyte. Guess which people prefer. Mqurice
