While the forecast you make seems to be likely based upon the trends in the overall market and the movements of the Q to date, how about some possible other factors which may affect the Q as an individual stock before the end of this calendar year.

Hanging over all is the specification on the "standards" for 3rd gen CDMA.

The potential sale of the "handset division". To whom, and in return for what future potential for the Q (sales price less important than "other factors" such as reinforcement of CDMA, etc.)

Just plain ole Conference Call announcements in non voice wireless fields, such as laptop computers, handheld devices other than phones, WLL expansion around the world with the Q's active participation, Globalstar showing signs of life after launch, positive developments re China in context of World Trade negotiations or a CDMA breakthrough there for any reason, etc. etc.

Couldn't one or more of these add to Q's attractiveness and therefore have a positive effect on the price in a timeframe between Nov 2 and Dec 31 - but at specific dates difficult to predict now?

Chaz

PS All the above in full recognition of "sell on the news", the Greenspan effect, and the Y2K fears which work to dampen upward movement in the price of the Q in Nov (and perhaps early Dec)
