  I would hazard that we see no issues through the end of 2009. If a part
goes out of production, then you have a 'grey market' that lasts for
some while. As the grey market drains you ordinarily would look to do
a redesign. For example, remove glamo and switch GSM chips. That just
an example folks so don't start down the path of defining GTA02+
