"Anything wireless" - QCOM IDC ANCC are my current favorites

AT&T (NYSE: T) said in December it will create a new company, AT&T Wireless Group, and a new class of AT&T common stock which will hit the market next spring in the biggest U.S. IPO ever. The "unlocked value" of the wireless business is expected to bring in between $8 to $10 billion in its IPO.

Hot issues for the next millennium include "anything wireless," Peterson said, adding that AT&T's spin-off is sure to be big.

A lot more wireless companies may go public in 2000, predicts Roth. The debut of AT&T's wireless business will be phenomenal, and many others may try to match the enormous success of Phone.com (Nasdaq: PHCM), which has gained about 1400 percent since its IPO this year. Phone.com provides Internet browser software for wireless phones and server software for wireless network operators.

I have been tracking RIMM for a while, but this piece of news concerns me. How will this affect their future business, in your opinion? If it weren't for this, I would have probably bought a small position.
