It looks like Qualcomm is in the running for Apple's 5G modem chips. This could be really good for us, if there was a chance to come out on top. Do we have that chance?

Maveric: Hey Qcomm? Can you give me ROI on everything 5G?
Qcomm: Oh sure yes! (let me licky lick your oh so nice and your apple source tastes so good!].
Maveric: Thanks so much that was very nice! Oh yes, now sorry to say but - GTFO looser!
Apple doesn't care about cutting edge. 5G for them is 4 cycles away.
Lloyd Christmas: I want to ask you a question, straight out, flat out, and I want you to give me the honest answer. What do you think the chances are of a guy like you and a girl like me ending up together?
Mary Swanson: Well Lloyd, that's difficult to say. We really don't...
Lloyd Christmas: Hit me with it! Just give it to me straight! I came a long way just to see you Mary, just... The least you can do is level with me. What are my chances?
Mary Swanson: Not good.
[the background soundtrack music suddenly stops]
Lloyd Christmas: [he gulps, his mouth twitching] You mean, not good like one out of a hundred?
Mary Swanson: I'd say more like one out of a million.
Lloyd Christmas: [long pause while he processes what he's heard] So you're telling me there's a chance. YEAH!
You are aware this is a legal play for Apple to say QCOM stiffles competition? If we win injunction, they can't use Intel, intel fails, boohoo. Court hates that and rules against big bad QCOM.
The puppet master wins again.
No qualcomm should pull from mac. Let mav develop its phone with Intel chips.
Oh qcom has a chance alright. A very good chance. Question is, will Apple pay for it? Or will they steal just like they are doing right now?
