I think covered calls in general are bad news unless done for a very very brief period of time. Just sell the puts if you want cash and let the stock run to the upside.

You make a good point on call premium volatility, jmac.
If QCOM goes to the mid 130's I'll write more cc's at a higher strike price. I also should look into buying protective puts (instead of writing calls) on my QCOM.
