So any more LTE hits out there? This is the list of LTE handsets that I believe have the MDM9x00 Samsung Skyrocket LG Nitro HTC Thunderbolt HTC Rezound HTC Vivid Pantech Breakout You are absolutely right that none of them are a hit and Q's marketshare does not reflect their design win share (which is actually pretty good). My original post though wasnt really about the current market share. I was just looking at the fact that there is finally an opportunity for differentiation in baseband performance. That hasnt been true for years. I think your posts show that you agree except you are highlighting the fact that I ignored the negative possibilities. A renewed focus on baseband performance is both an opportunity and a risk....it is possible that Q's LTE performance will lag the competition which would obviously be a real problem. I guess we'll find out when we start seeing some second generation LTE chipsets on the market. Slacker
