SmartMoney: Street Smart - Face-Off Dow Jones News Service ~ February 15, 2000 ~ 8:00 am EST This story appears in the March issue of SmartMoney magazine. By Landon Thomas Jr. Qualcomm (Nasdaq: QCOM) -- Shares were up 2,619 percent in 1999, making Qualcomm the best-performing stock in the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index. Can the wireless-phone darling continue its gravity-defying ascent? "The stock will hit $250 by 2001." -- Walter Piecyk, PaineWebber "Watch out for profit taking." -- David Heger, A.G. Edwards & Sons YES: Qualcomm is the market leader in CDMA, the cutting- edge technology that lets wireless phones transmit and receive data as well as voice traffic. By 2010, CDMA will be used on most of the 3 billion mobile phones we think will then be in use, meaning a $20 billion royalty stream. YES: The company also supplies chips to CDMA handset makers. With a dominant market share, Qualcomm's chip revenue will double, to $2 billion, by 2001. YES: Qualcomm just sold off its money-draining handset business. As a pure play the royalty business is worth $200 a share; the chip business adds another $50. NO: Qualcomm's CDMA patents start expiring in 2006, and competitors file new patents every day. Plus, the projection of 3 billion handsets in use by 2010 is too high. Two billion by 2005 is more realistic, with growth leveling out after that. NO: Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia are all developing their own CDMA chips. So far they haven't succeeded, but it's doubtful all three will keep failing for the next decade. NO: Sure, the phone disposal is a plus, but that helps only for the next few quarters. At a current price of 120 times earnings, the upside is limited. A more reasonable share price is $125.

Jim, Like Eski, I am also a CubanAmerican and I am disgusted by your references to a cuban woman floating.... I have read your posts for a couple of months and noticed that you have a tendency toward making generalizing denigrating remarks about people from other cultures which shows lack of class and decency. I regard to your visit to Cuba let me give you a little hint on how to control violence -- MAKE EVERYBODY POOR AND HOPELESS! Let me give you another piece of advice on your dream of buying yourself a Cuban woman for $4K -- SHE WILL LEAVE YOU AS SOON AS YOU GET HER HERE. If you can't get a relationship with a woman in the U.S. what makes you think a woman from another culture will be easier, specially with your apparent superiority complex. To close I agree completely with Eski's reaction toward you. Unfortunately he chose to use foul language which somehow offends some people more than your lack of respect for others. Viva Cuba Libre!!
