Gregg -

TDMA CDMA who cares. technical excellence; improved performance; better coverage; no possibliity for expansion; satellites shmatelites.....

It has taken me some time and an expensive lesson to learn that discussions about technical excellence have nothing whatsoever to do with making money from investments.

I said it right here on this thread a coiuple of days ago and didn't heed my own adivce. Q is for loving and dreaming abourt technology. NOK.A is about earning money. All that stuff about timing over 2 year and 4 years and 8 years etc. the Finns are in and have been in business and have been working at it very hard and their stock has doubled in the last year. The Q has developed a whole new standard and has wonderful technology and its stock goes up and down like a yoyo and not much higher than an average yoyo at that. Its not their fault its ours or mine for dreaming again instead of being hard nosed about investment.

I'm really enthralled about the possibilities for Q but their stock just has no resilience. it gets back on its feet and at the first sign of trouble which we have to recognize comes almost once every five or six weeks now it drops back to where it came from . The stock's natural home is in the forties where the great white whale lives and to where it is no doubt winding its weary way again and like Captain Ahab taking all us long standing sufferers with it.

Sorry but i'm getting weary and dissapointed. Maybe its not on;y the Q but NASDAQ as well. Its only for specialists and for ordinary investores in very small amounts only.

Regards,
