Oh dear. So many posts to read. I sleep, you all write! Without reading them - other than Gregg's two last ones, I hereby conclude: ------------------------------------------------------------------ "FIG LEAVES ON TUESDAY" W3G announcement. L M Ericsson says they have decided in the interests of global harmony and self-sacrifice to bow to the obstinate, senseless, self-interest of QUALCOMM so that NTT and other operators who MUST get some progress can get underway. A single, harmonious, synchronicity is vital. While more inefficient, the low chip rate demanded by QUALCOMM to unfairly benefit the old style CDMA will have to form the basis of W3G. ----------------------------------------------------------------- So the price of Q! drops?!! Oh well, pile in while there is a chance. I'm going to savour the victory while I read some of the thread - can't read it all at one sitting - and hope I don't get a jaw-drop fright along the way. Mqurice $80 coming up! 16,000 for the Dow Feb 2002. Don't miss the boat...

Gregg, I sure hope you're right. After multiple readings this seems to me to be the operative sentence: "The group of European and Asian wireless operators ''have agreed to build a bridge between the two systems,'' he said." We'll have to see wait and see what this means... Keeping my fingers crossed...:-)....Dave

Gregg and all: I'm new to the thread but have been ready all your post and they have been very imformative. I have a theory I want to run past all who can provide an input. I believe the profit warning from the CEO of Ericsson today may have something to do with NTT Docomo and the European's statement today. Could it be possible that Ericsson learned of NTT and the European's decision to go with CDMA2000 a few days ago and as a result made another profit warning announcement today. This is the second warning just within a couple weeks of the first warning. Why else would a CEO make two profit warnings within such a short period of time? I believe the first profit warning a couple of weeks ago is based on the company's general poor performance in the past and going forward. But today's profit warning was made because of very recent revolation of the Asians and the Europeans deciding to go with CDMA2000. This is just a theory but if anyone can comment I would appreciate it. Yi
