<< My wife's jeweler asked her if he could call me about QCOM. He wanted to know if he should buy now. He doesn't have any and wants to get a piece of the action. Time to worry.>> Makes one wonder. Two days ago I was having a casual conversation with someone about my view of the (very) general future for companies like Qcom, wireless, internet, sat, etc. They had never even heard of QualComm. They did, however, ask me if I was "in" Leap Wireless. I was stunned! Somehow this person had found their way to Lwin and jumped on the bandwagon; yet had never even heard of Qcom. If I had responded to the question with, "Oh; you mean that company that makes the cell-phone with the built in flashlight and cigarette lighter?", they likely would have nodded in the affirmative. Yet, perhaps this has always been the nature and composition of what makes up much of "the market"; retail, anyway. To each, their own. And to all you Veterans out there; Thanks! ......VVVVVVVVVVVVV
