Technology Stocks : The New Qualcomm - a S&P500 company -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Chaz,

I keep wondering about this data stuff via wireless.

What speed was the first modem for landlines? Isn't it logical that wireless would go through the same migration path, albeit starting at a higher rate?

From a business model standpoint, QC has to learn from the masters such as MSFT and INTL. Bring something on the market that you know you will obsolesce in 6 months so consumers would have to upgrade and upgrade and upgrade.

I am still not clear as to why the carriers are not pushing wireless data big time. May be they are waiting for thinphone and possibly other devices to be available in quantity.
