Addendum: Why not both Nokia and the Q ? After careful research, due diligence, and on and on if you decide on your own. Chaz PS Still think that my old motto: Nokia and Qualcomm - together the world is worth some consideration. :-) Can't think two companies in wireless that could do more if they just would cooperate.

Caxton me Lad , I'm waiting for Q to get rid of their handset manufacturing "business", to start a massive public education campaign as follows --- that Q signifies Quality, C signifies Clarity, etc.; and every neat CDMA Phone (you pick the generation) sports a "smart Q chip" inside. I want to see a little sticker on each CDMA phone, that states "Q Inside" and I want every kid to know what that means. Then when a customer returns a phone with a hairline crack, loose "fat" battery, or an un-cool color that their teenie bopper will not be seen dead with --- The phone manufacturer will take the heat, while Q smiles all the way to the bank. Give me a "heads up" on that's about to happen, and I'll load up !! :-) Meanwhile I'm sitting on Ascend, Lucent, and Cisco. I'm still long term bullish on this "pig", but I'm short term hedging my bets. Best, Mardy.

Apple, Volvo and Nokia, gentlemen, these three companies have something in common: they have nice products, good brand names, and loyal customers and they don't matter! Nokia is a niche player. Wireless is a misnomer. If I call from my mobile to China, the call goes a couple of KM over the air interface and from the Base Station is plain old telephony all the way. To call that a wireless call, it would be the same if I would fly to China and just because I took a taxi to the airport I start saying I went to China by road. The air interface, which people call wireless, is just a way to feed the public network. If Ericsson makes lots of public network stuff the more "wireless" the better for the "wiremore". It was about time someone who undertsand about these things step in here. I paid SI USD60 just because I was tired of reding rubbish in here. And I want you guys to make informed decisions when put your money in telecoms stock. I don't call myself matador for nothing. Next please...
