We think that beginning with Christmas 2006, this will really take off.

So cognitive radio will be essential.

Having a new coach was hard adjusting to at the beginning. But after Christmas, we've jelled a lot more. We started playing together more as a team. We started to get used to what the coach's style was compared to the other years.

One of my biggest issues with cognitive radio is that while there is some brilliant, sophisticated work being done, it is hard to see how it will translate into something we can bring to market in five years, We'd like to see a standardization effort emerge with a group of companies, governments and universities. Then it's healthy, and you have a real potential for market uptake.

It's easy to see how you could get to 10 to 12 air interfaces in different bands. That forces us to shift gears.

I wouldn't want to trade places with my counterpart at Intel. It's a very daunting thing to try to get into this market.
