Michael, Thanx for the regulatory reminder. In my mind, it's not a matter of if, it's just a matter of when. And the only when is when Ericsson is ready to compete. Looking at these projections from the UMTS, what happens in Europe (and North America for that matter) isn't going to matter much a few years down the road. Customers in millions at year end 1995 2000 2005 2010 2015 EU 15 22 113 200 260 300 North America 36 127 190 220 230 Asia Pacific 22 149 400 850 1400 Rest of World 7 37 150 400 800 Total 87 426 940 1730 2730 Given the recent rash of Chinese GSM announcements, it is quite likely that the GSM-CDMA overlay will generate more Yuans than Euro dollars. Of course, this assumes that Ericsson persists with it's current strategy of self immolation.
