Encouraging announcement about the mass storage chip. "With its significant cost and size advantages, the new 3CI platform has already been selected by a major HDD manufacturer..." I'd like to know who this is and what the competitors will be coming out with. With this company's history though I won't get excited until I see the design wins and revenues flowing in. Not a bad day, John PS: we can stop rumoring about Rockwell now; they are dumping their semi business for an extraordinary loss.

What about this news release: pubs.cmpnet.com Nokia, Ericsson and Motorola jointly develop Psion's EPOC OS for use in mobile phones. Cirrus is a supplier (the only?) of smartphone chipsets that run the EPOC operating system, using an ARM-based processor core (UK based ARM being good friends with UK Psion). Cirrus announced a deal for Philips smartphones. Why is Philips not included in this joint venture? Can Cirrus hope to make it big in mobile phone chipsets, or is this a case of Motorola stealing away Cirrus' revenue opportunities?
