PDA market potential and a couple questions:

naming.knowledgestor.com

Can't copy text because of special software protection, but it says analysts number "smart phones" in the billions by 2005. (seems kind of suspicious to me!)

naming.knowledgestor.com

Unified messaging a $31 billion market by 2006, new study suggests, with 170 million "mailboxes" (mailboxes=users?)

--------------
Now, will there be competing standards for this market? Now I know there are at least 3 groups working to corner this market, but isn't this more on the software side of things? In order to have wireless connectivity, which is obviously the main purpose, will each device have embedded CDMA with the manufacturer paying Q* royalties?

Thanks,

Brian
