Item heard on the evening news: Nokia Mobira cellular phones (some models ?) have been blocked from import by the US Customs Office into the US, because Motorola has claimed that Nokia has copied proprietary/patented chips used on the phones. Can anyone at Nokia Mobira/US, Motorola, US Customs, or anywhere else give more information on this, since this was all got from a two-minute spot on the news ? * * * Otto J.
