QCOM: the future of QCOM <<<San Diego, Feb. 17 (Bloomberg) -- Qualcomm Inc. said it expects sales of wireless phones using its patented technology to more than triple this year in Japan and gave upbeat forecasts for other countries and parts of its business. Shares rose 8 1/8, or 6.7 percent, to 130. They've declined 26 percent this year after rising 27-fold in 1999 and leading the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. The forecasts came during an annual meeting with analysts and investors in San Diego, where Qualcomm is based. Chairman Irwin Jacobs and other executives sought to reassure attendees that business was thriving despite a warning last month that chip sales this quarter may fall from the prior quarter because of shortages of other phone parts. The chip business is ''moving ahead very strongly,'' Jacobs said at the meeting, which was broadcast over the World Wide Web. Qualcomm President Richard Sulpizio said the number of users of phones with the company's standard is forecast to increase to 10 million by the end of the year, up from 3.5 million. Users of CDMA phones in Brazil will more than triple to 25 million in four years, he said, while users of all wireless phones in China will triple to 130 million in three years. There were about 50 million users of CDMA phones worldwide at the end of last year. It's the fastest-growing cell-phone technology and the No. 2 digital standard worldwide. >>>>>>>
