TXN and SSPIF.....Pat, <<<One of the C6X products I find especially intriguing is their V.34+ which will allow multiple modems on a board, thus saving valuable real estate in telco COs.>> While the above is all very true, the key significance is not multiple modems per board, but rather multiple modems per chip. <<What does TI's c6x have to do with SSPIF? >> Larry, we can not overlook comments made by Tom Engibous in September at the Montgomery Securities Conference. Strategic Alliances TI recognizes that there is a lot of great DSP software being developed by other companies. To support the development of new technology we have aggressively entered a number of strategic alliances with third-party technology companies. Let me give you an example of two of these alliances. Amati is a technology leader in high-speed Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line or ADSL implementation. This technology was first developed by Amati who holds patent rights to key elements. This alliance with TI will further enable the development of new technology for the design of ADSL interface devices. Both parties will develop ADSL solution with Amati providing the core ADSL software and TI marketing the software along with our DSP and analog front-end components for customers using ADSL interfaces. Our C6x technology also has led to recent design wins with Spectrum Signal Processing - targeting a wide array of markets including cellular infrastructure and remote access servers. Spectrum's CEO Barry Jinks, says that Spectrum never has experienced such a strong initial interest in newly announced products. He expects significant revenue when the product begins shipping next year. That's the kind of enthusiasm we like to hear about the C6x. You can expect more strategic alliances as TI steps up the pace of building these relationships.

[Wages speech] Pat - Thanks for posting that speech by Ron while he was at TXN. He must have had some good reasons to move from TX N to CVUS....I don't think the weather in Vancouver was a consideration.... Regards... Ed...
