Good point made! Also a problem is to find a kind of universal chip that is
not directed for a special purpose as those usually are limited in their
capabilities, and optimized for some frequency bands and/or modes of
operation. Last, but not least - the chip must be available to smaller
companies without hardly to overcome restrictions, and there must be a
chance that it will be available for more than a few months only...
