qcom only got "amenable" with their $100M offer after they had been handed their head by BRCM. I don't look for qcom to negotiate with themselves. Furthermore, their stock is doing fine. I think the fact that Q got its head handed to it by Broadcom just illustrates the risks. A 2.5% rate would be a compromise....Nokia is aiming for lower than that and this is reflected in the fact that most analysts are estimating a 2% rate going forward. The loss of the 7 quarters worth of payments wouldnt really make much difference to the stock price either. JMO, but both stocks go up on that kind of deal. /t/w/ if your suggesting that my compromise is reflective of "go(ing)ballsitic" you are only kidding a kidder.<g> i Actually, I should rephrase that. I think many on this board would oppose such an offer. However, if they actually made the deal, I think Q's stock price would shoot higher....so I think you would find considerably less opposition after the deal was made :-). Slacker
