...deprived? One big reason: the whizziest stuff you can do with a cell phone requires a digital network, and the Europeans had a three-year head start implementing theirs. Moreover, they chose one network technology: GSM (Global System for Mobile communications). The use of a single standard puts them in a much better position to embrace the next big thing in wireless...
This is all starting to sound depressingly familiar. Once again the Sunday talk shows are crammed with senators and pundits calling for full disclosure. After all, said Orrin Hatch on "Meet the Press," the American people are a forgiving bunch, so if George W. Bush has anything to tell us about past cocaine use he should "just answer the darn question and get rid of it."

...writer and director, the impact of the decline was more subtle than the fall was jolting. Right out of the box, investors gave us a big market cap--in essence, a club to beat up or buy up competitors. But then they took the club away before we could start swinging. We were looking brash and predator-like--top of the food chain. Now we feel like timid prey. A chart of our stock looks like one half of the Apollo's Chariot ride at Busch Gardens--the first part, which starts at the top. It's been a dizzying...
