This question has been posted numerous times and nobody has yet to post a credible answer. If you ever find out, I'd sure like to know. I even called QCOM investor relations and couldn't get a reliable answer. But, it sure seems to be a relevant and very important question.

A word of comfort to all worriers.
As I write, an analyst is speaking about Qcom.
Here's what he is saying
"Several of our customers have owned Qcom long enough to have $7 - $8 buy prices. Nevertheless we are buyers of the stock in the $130's. This company is becoming a Gorilla, with discontinuous innovation that is necessary to buy and cannot be replaced with any other reliable company. There are more surprises in store for shareholders than they can imagine."
