	SiliconBeat: Sequoia to invest in China?

		Sequoia is famous for not responding to press inquiries, so we're unlikely to get any confirmation from them.
		But Sequoia's leader Mike Moritz was in Israel on Thursday, and an interview was published today in TheMarker.com, in which we're told he said Sequoia will soon announce the fund.
