Very impressive, Sommers. You are apparently the exception that proves the rule. It begs a question: with all of your insight into the advantages of cdma, why doesn't Q appear on your list of favorite stocks? uf

Hello Mr. Sommers, a real expert. Thanks for your post. You've made it very clear that wireless data could enable QCOM to succeed in a tremendous way. But data is usually sent from one computer to another and why not over wired lines? Today with optical fiber, the bandwidth and speed can both be tremendous, so I hear. It seems to me possible that the only computer that would need wireless transmission is a moving computer. What share of the market could moving computers have? (Computers on airplanes, trucks, cars, trains). Nobody could confuse me with an electrical engineer. I'm woefully ignorant. The question I posed is probably stupid. Anyway it weighs on my mind as I ponder the future of QCOM. I'd be most grateful for enlightenment from you.
