We think this is a good result with a 12 percent rise in earnings and the dividend in spite of a difficult market in Germany.

I think we have shown that we are a good team and we have threatened a result like that for some time now. Stuart McLaren coming into the side added that extra bit of steel and maturity and I think we have benefited from that.

we are well on our way to our goal of 50 percent online - and actually think that after 50 percent it's going to keep going to 70 percent.

I expect the story to be one of very good earnings. Things really get underway next week (week of April 17), but all signs now are pointing to a first quarter that is better than the historical average of 7 percent earnings growth.

The estimates are for earnings to be down 50 percent in the second quarter, 37 percent in the third quarter, and 12 percent in the fourth.

The likelihood of stumbling is much higher if [like Nokia] you have 80 or 85 percent of earnings coming from handsets rather than 5 percent in the case of Ericsson in the fourth quarter.
