It's going to be years before all these Bogeymen die on the vine, if ever. ..

*CDMA won't work, too complicated, against law of physics, a fraud..
*Too late to market...
*Handsets are behind the curve, coverage spotty...
*Q is unfocused and has bitten off more than it can chew, witness all the handset problems, losing scads on infrastructure...
* WCDMA will isolate IS95 and strand QCOM, no more royalties...
* Oncoming handset competition from the NOK,MOT, ERICY will destroy margins..
*Q will lose ASIC share to SAMsung etc....
*Because of Infrastructure sale Q will lose control over standards direction and lose ability to keep up for ASIC innovation
*China is "case closed"

There must be some I've forgotten.....

Meanwhile, of course........Q just keeps rollin along..
