---> no where in that post did I "call you a fool" You are right but you certainly implied it or at least that is how it came across to me. Here's another of your posts along a similar line. That was the last time we bounced back from "The Level". The response to that post is most interesting. Going back and rereading the series of posts attached to the original link, I see you also chastised me for critizing QCOM for not being in the iPad. If you had read my post there you would see that what I was commenting on was the fact that Qualcomm chipsets were not available within any tablets at the time we got our iPad (version 2) and that was well after we had all endured the infamous smartbook keynote. My friend, vision isn't the issue, it's getting and keeping market desired product moving out the door. I understand that Qualcomm has focused their efforts upon smartphones and they can't lead all markets but the last CES keynote was about always on, available anywhere smartbooks. When those didn't take hold, we were told that it was because the iPad changed the game. Sometimes one can't win, no matter what route one travels. The Lenovo Skylight contained a self operating tablet yet it still took them another year or so to get their LePad's to market. Let's just leave this CEO leadership matter as something that we agree to disagree about. In the realm of "chips and royalties", which is the major thrust of the business these days, the side issues like car charging, wireless health, M2M, etc are much less relevant. This time around, we can all hope for and look forward to a CES undertaking of higher longevity. There is much more on the line these days than there was at the end of 2009.
