Daniel Amir – Lazard Capital Markets
Thank you. A couple of questions here -- first of all, your deck business as a percentage of sales declined. Can you just comment on what is going on a bit in the non-deck business? Are you seeing -- I mean, is that business recovering? I mean, what are you exactly seeing there?
Ofer Elyakim
So what I can do is we can give you the split as we always give about the split between the product line but we have some other categories that basically increase relative to the figure that we had let’s say in the second quarter of the year. But let me give you the details on the split first. So as we said in the call, so deck accounted for 79%. Deck Europe and ROW accounted for 43%. Deck 6 accounted for 36% and 5.8 was about 2%, 2.4 accounted for about 10%, and we had some other addition.

And in terms of the growth trends in the non-deck business?
Ofer Elyakim
Yes, I would not read too much in -- if you were trying to reference Q3 and Q2, the percentage decline as a percent of revenues because some of the deck that you saw, you saw also with the other parts, like voice-over-IP which is not -- we do not account for it in the deck section, so basically roughly it’s the same percent if we also account to other -- into the other category.

Okay, now into 2010, I mean, I guess in your prepared remarks you talked a lot about the CAT-iq. I mean, what kind of are the key growth drivers that we should be looking for 2010 for the company? And is the CAT-iq, is this going to make a difference in 2010 already?
Ofer Elyakim
Yes, so we are -- CAT-iq has been in the market but is now a, with a certain decision made by European operators, becoming a more significant part of the offering and becoming basically a standard into Europe, and so many of the European operators are now launching what we call integrated access device, or home gateways that basically will offer an integrated [inaudible] with both the access, which is DSL or cable in the U.S., et cetera, together with the wireless LAN to distribute data and streaming in the home and deck to distribute voice at home. And so this is a trend that is definitely picking up and most of these -- I would say that all of the launches that we are aware of are with CAT-iq requests, and so this is definitely will introduce a replacement cycle in the market and with these home gateways, handsets are also sold or could be bought separately for multi-handsets, et cetera.
