Let's see now where to begin. Competition, well, that's not what we've been used to people entering the market and leaving the market. So I think we'll take it in 2 parts. We like the consolidation that's going on, and as you pointed out, having Javelin acquired, well we kind of like that, so I think that bodes well for the industry. Just to remind the group, we talked about this when we announced that we were acquiring Amalfi. We went out and surveyed the entire CMOS space, and quite honestly, felt Amalfi had the best 2G and 3G products. When we look at the cost structure and the performance of 2G and 3G from Amalfi, we absolutely believe we bought the right company. So kind of parking at that, industry dynamic fantastic of what's going on there. As far as Qualcomm, first, I want to acknowledge Qualcomm's a great company, and we highly value our relationships with these reference design partners such as Qualcomm. I mean, obviously, they're key to our ecosystem. Also we would feel that they acknowledge that this is of growing importance of the RF from-end to the entire system. Yes, there's lots of RF complexity. We talked about that throughout the call in our prepared comments for LTE systems. And if anything, it's going to increase and we talked about some of the new technologies coming like carrier aggregation and envelope tracking and et cetera. So our customers are just going to have ways to increase this integration levels and simplify their designs. Quite frankly, that's what RFMD has been focused on for many years. We think we're in a very good position to continue leading this trend. So from a high level, we don't see much changing. It's really the acknowledgment of this space has a lot of opportunity for growth, a lot of opportunity for problem solving, and I think if you look at our numbers and what we've been able to put up over the last few quarters, I think we've got a good handle on it, but I'll let Eric comment or go any deeper, if he'd like.
