LB,

I tend to think you're right about the Paine Webber analyst's reference to 3 billion "cell phones" including all devices. I wish he had been more clear about the use of the term throughout the entire report.

Use of terminology will probably continue to get confusing. We've got the PW analyst calling computers cell phones and a month or so ago we saw a report calling Nokia's cell phones computers. SHEESH!

LB,
Back on topic. I saw an interview with Dr. Jacobs (bow to the king) where he talked about instead of looking for a phone connection for your laptop at the airport you would be connected during the cab ride. Wireless conectivity built into laptops is in the future using Sprint PCS unused bandwith for HDR. The Q* detractors are looking at the present rather than the future and the future includes CDMA technology in lots of devices. The forward earning projections are for current business models without reguard for future innovation. Disclamer: I am wearing a Qualcomm logo sweatshirt, Qualcomm logo T-shirt, and I have a Qualcomm PCS phone on the desk in front of me.
