<I hope Q is working on a guided missle that would disable, or sufficiently screw up any CDMA signal that uses pirated chips and/or refuses to pony up royalties.> Qualcomm through the 1980s was predominantly doing just this kind of stuff and has got the Condor project still going. That's the spooks stuff. The USA security is vastly improved thanks to Mighty Q and Irwin Jacobs. That's the sort of reason he was awarded the Medal for Technology by Al Gore and why Brent Scowcroft and ex National Security Advisor is on the board of Qualcomm It wouldn't be the smartest thing to do to try to steal Qualcomm's property. Irwin is ahead of the game on that one too. Did you see what happened when Richard Bliss was kidnapped by the Russian authorities when working on CDMA in Rostov on Don? There were a few top level, meaning the very top, contacts and he was sent home for Xmas. Meanwhile, yes, indeed I'm awake. Yes, I did think my eyes were blurry or my brain had sprung a leak or the people who put pixels on my screen were putting the wrong ones on, but then I remembered posting last night, while you were all asleep [or should have been], that China wanting CDMA is like watching a herd of elephants getting ready to charge. Well, here they come. What a LOT of fun this is. Even more than when markets fall vertically. Y2K tomorrow here - only one more sleep. If I don't appear in 2000, it's because NZ fell off the map on Y2K clickover. Meanwhile, in 1992 IPO pricing, Qualcomm is now over $2000 [today up to $2500 or something] Nearly 11 million shares traded, at $610 average or something, so that is a BIG day. It'll be $7bn, which is double the market cap this time last year [more or less]. Not worrying about double counting in Nasdaq. Awake and grinning, Mqurice
