Much like everyone else in the industry I was shocked by this mornings news that Qualcomm had acquired Firethorn, but within a short period time I was back in my groove and my day proceeded as usual. Yet, periodically my mind kept going back to the story and I couldn't figure out why.
Then on the drive home it hit me. This is not the first time Qualcomm has been in the news recently. It was just over a week ago that Qualcomm was listed as a member of the new Open Handset Alliance spear-headed by the team at Google.
