In the end, Qualcomm's new structure may result in even more dramatic change. Several analysts think that Jacobs has made the company more appealing as an acquisition candidate by selling the low-margin manufacturing operations. 'It's beginning to look more like an engineering lab with lots of intellectual property that somebody is going to want to own,' says Gartner Group's Egan. That somebody could be Motorola, Nokia, or even Intel, which is now getting into the business of making telecom chips. Jacobs is showing once again that blazing his own trail can be very lucrative for him and his shareholders.

Could this happen in the near term? What would be a "fair" price?
