Tim- No way q joins up with ericy. No way q management could stomach it. If q joins forces with anyone, its seems to me it should be with a big GSM player, anyone but ericy. Nokia on the other hand.... However, I doubt it will happen in the foreseeable future. Hell when cdmaOne dominates China in 81 months, we won't be needing anyone. Right? Caxton P.S.

By the way this is Omnitracs. A little sidenote from the electric business in California. PG&E, SMUD Differ On Outage Response Wind-related power outages were still affecting Sacramento Municipal Utility District customers last night, two days after they began and more than a day after PG&E restored power to its customers in the outlying areas of Sacramento. Both SMUD and its customers are trying to figure out why SMUD was slower in restoring power. According to the Sacramento Bee, some differences were clear. PG&E sized up the storm faster than SMUD. By mid-afternoon Tuesday, PG&E kept its crews on late to deal with the storm, while SMUD sent about half of its home. PG&E also brought better tools to the job, the Bee says. The utility's sophisticated computer system tracks outages from the initial phone call, and correlates the calls to help pinpoint trouble spots quickly, while SMUD workers sort calls by hand. PG&E also keeps track by computer of crews in the field , so parceling out the work is done more efficiently. SMUD will prepare a report card on how its response stacked up against PG&E's.
