Gregg,Thankou for your input.Have you heard anything about Southwestern Bell eyeing Korean Mobile company Shinsegi Telecom with a $500,000 investment.They are trying to buy Kolon Group and Pohang Steel shares.I know QUALCOMM owns 2.46%.With this activity occuring in the face of QUALCOMM's possible spin off bodes well for a good IPO,possibly bring that $3.50-$4.00 share much higher based on demand.

Gregg, do you have any views on the Sprint proposal to buy out its cable partners in Sprint PCS and then float and spin off that business? At a glance it looks like a very interesting cellular operator investment to me. Perhaps the most interesting. Any thoughts on timing, values? What part of Sprint might its PCS interests constitute? Does this make Sprint an interesting investment now? Regards, Doug

Bride with a dowry or extra mouth to feed abandoned? If the New Company is going to be capitalized with just $200 or $300 million, why bother? Otherwise, the unwanted divisions could be shopped about and sold off to other telecoms. If in fact there is to be a new company with any chance of success it needs its part share in the family inheritance such as OmniTracs, Globalstar LP units, unrealized gain interest in Mexico venture, etc. to generate cash in the very near future. Without a big endowment, it will always be cash poor, in debt to banks and Qualcomm, and selling its stock too cheap in secondary offerings. Better a new $30 stock, with taxable gain element, than a $5 tax free problem child.
