Maurice - A word about bonkers!

PS: Notice that Ericy went bonkers too and despite people moaning at how obtuse I've been all these years for insisting that Ericy would indeed buy a cdmaOne licence, which they have now done, they are planning on selling both cdmaOne and GSM. I suspect that they plan to offer both products to the mad hatters of China for the bonkers strategy. The whole world is going 'bonkers'. My prescience must amaze you, Mika, Raymond and those who were convinced I was off my trolley. If you have any questions about the future, just ask!

Not sure that I heard that Ericsson WILL definitely sell cdmaOne, although the option is there. They did, however, commit themselves to the cdmaOne handset business.

Maurice, you off your trolley?...I am about to invest in the trolley business, as it seems the whole world has gone bonkers!!

[Tero, just on the quiet, you should be aware that in Pommyland, they use the expression 'bonkers' in a euphemistic way to describe people interested and acting out human reproductive processes. This could give offence in China, so be circumspect about the use of the word].

Sorry Maurice, the word is not bonkers, which here in Pommyland does mean mad, but you were referring to the word 'bonk', which means, to put it politely, 'fornicate', e.g., "I had a great bonk last night!"
You can of course say, "They were bonking all night long!". Basically all forms of 'bonk', but not bonkers.
