In an ideal world, Qualcomm would already have been toying with RISC-V chips and have a couple ready to launch.

Sadly, in this world it means next week there will be new licensing in affect that translates to flagship cell phones being $1500 instead of the $1100-1200 range.

Maybe other companies relying on ARM will see this and push to research RISC-V a bit more as an option that can’t be rug-pulled because one group of billionaires insulted another, but even that’s probably wishful thinking.
