Danny-Thanks for your info.Looking at 2007,in light of the first qtr guidance,and seeing that the tier 2 licenses recurring revenue from 2005 and 2006 remained about the same,the immediate prospects for recouping the $25 mil in lost revenues from nok,don't look too promising-at least in the first half of the year.Meanwhile,if I heard correctly,our expenses are going to increase in the first quarter.We will eventually get the 2g Sam money,but no guarantees of a 3g license attached.With the qcom/nok scenario still to be played out,I'm trying to see why GS most likely doesn't see this as dead money for 2007.I'm confident that they see something very positive happening and relatively soon to justify that 59% increase.I could be making too much of their position and your perspective is valued,but I think there just might be something that they see short term that isn't apparent to us.jmo
