An Open Letter to my readers
Thursday, May 29, 2008
I perennially think of topics that will benefit my readers. As I look to expand the scope of my blog and its coverage, I would like help from you, my readers.
My first request to you - Ask me questions. One of the first rules to get the right information is to ask the right questions. Active debate on this blog or mail exchanges, in turn, help me present new information in a lucid and logical analysis. I have a 'contact me' that will help you ask me questions in private. Of course, you can also ask them as blog comments. In either case, keep those questions coming!
My second request to you - send me a note if you find anything that you think would be relevant to the contents in this blog. You are also welcome to point me to any disruptive technology that you think deserves my attention.
My third request to you - point out my errors if you see any. I am of the view that receptiveness to constructive criticism is the best way to improve. So feel free to point fingers at me if you find anything wrong in this site. After all, it is the content in this site that has generated the credibility. I do not want to compromise on its quality, least of all by being closed to suggestions.
Finally, if you wish to contribute as a guest on my blog, you can contact me here. I welcome diverse opinions and analysis on the wireless/technology industry which do not necessarily have to resonate with mine.
Keep reading. Keep contributing. Together, we can get a better understanding of this complex industry and its value chain.

Good blog. Keep it going.
Dude, Investor Business Daily is reporting that Marvell has the 3g iPhone chip design win. You got to discuss this scenario and the Marvell resurgence.

Vijay,
I enjoy reading your blog. Your insights and understanding of wireless technology are very helpful.
One subject that I'd like to learn more about is the prospects for Long Term Evolution (LTE) 4G. It appears that major telecoms are ramping up significant R&D $/projects on LTE. Will LTE have an impact and if so how many years before its widely deployed? Another topic that interests me is the future of femtocells. Telecoms are now testing the use of base stations for home/business use. What's your take on future prospects for femtocells? Huge, moderate or just a blip on the radar?
And for more immediate discussion ... Infineon clearly shook things up a bit with their May 29 statement re lower than expected orders for an "unidentified project to supply chips for high-speed Internet phones." Did Infineon lose Samsung or Apple? Inquiring minds want to know :) LOL.
Thanks again for your contributions.

Thanks for your comments. I will come up with an iPhone-related article soon that addressed Marvell and Infineon.
Dan, I guess you read my mind on femtocells. I have started coverage on it and you will see some posts later this month. As for LTE, I think I have nuggets of information in the archives. I will try to compile them into a post later.
Thanks,
Vijay
