@1je you don't know about IP development. Auto and compute is just leveraging from Mobile. Anything offshore will die in few years, just look at history.

I would move all mobile offshore. The product lines can be handled elsewhere at a lower cost and focus on auto and compute in the US.

The volume of auto sales vs. mobile phone sales is miniscule. And no one wants a new car with all of the features of V2X nonsense.
