It was bad when Texas Instruments got out of cellphone business. It made it harder to update the Galaxy Nexus from Google officially. I wish Google had picked another chip-maker at the time.

            So, now Qcom and Intel are the only good baseband shops left.

            Then again I won't miss departure of Broadcom. They were rather hostile to opensource.
