You and Bertonis are fighting yesterday's battle....Did you see the IBM announcement today...IBM is buying privately held Commquest which claims to have a single chip solution for GSM handsets. I don't know if they have ever competed for the Ericsson business, perhaps they were too small then. But now they have IBM, a much bigger brother. IBM chose to acquire Commquest because of their advanced design technology and will now add this design expertise to its own chip fabrication resources, like germanium & copper production technologies, to produce the fastest communications chips ever. Look at the announcement and check out the Commquest home page. This is serious competition. JEC
