Hi people.

At Qualcom' sprice of 216, I think that sucker is much more highly valued than cisco, by any stretch of the imagination !

Cisco's advantages...

1- Cisco's IOS is a bit like Softy's OS lock
2- Web Sales & Support, so margins stay high & COS low.
3- Very high margins, what 65% + ?
4- Very High growth Sales/ profits...
5- Exploding market , I guess like CDMA/3G Qualcomm
6- fabless/construction-less, more of a software company..

Comments... ?

Can someone explain why Qualcomm at 216 is a BUY , and not an overvalued "Royalty" play on CDMA ?

I know their margins might increase TO 15-20%, big deal, compared to Intel's 58%+, or Cisco 65%+, or Mr Softy's 45-50%+

Take care
jean
