I know the Kids are involved, But I have seen way too many companies get side tracked once the founders are gone and there kids take over. I have personally seen it at my level. I'm just spouting off anyhow, I do not know the company that well to be qualified in making such broad statements. I don't mean to imply that the the founders kids are not commented to the vision. I do stand by my thinking on IP models though, it's a new type of biz. that has not stand the test of time. I worry about the hassle down the road and the money that the kids will have. Will they still want to fight or will they just want to play? Think of all the employees they are leaving behind. Did those employee know from day one that they were being used as a means to the end to get CDMA out in the market place and were going to be faced with the prospect of new overseers? I doubt it was told to them when they signed on with QCOM. In fact I will bold enough to say that QCOM did not plan to sell off the divisions, Sure it might of been a back up plan, but no way they had it planed as the PLAN. They are selling, shrinking, reaping the benefit, they might just get used to reaping and not working.
