Believe me, you're not the first one to say that. It may be more than their combined market cap. now, but what will those be in 5 years? What were they 5 years ago?

The thing I find odd about it is that people do the calculation and wind up at $1.6T, and immediately think it's impossible... in their current mindset. Usually because they try to overlay that situation with the current QCOM reality. I'm trying to get people to understand that QCOM has a valuation based on a lot less than 100 Million worldwide CDMA mobile phone users, that will probably be well over 1 billion devices in 2005. They'll have chips in cars, PDAs, phones, vending machines, kiosks, desktops, laptops, and stuff we can't even think of now.

Don't sell this company and it's potential short.

We will all see whether they make it, but only over the course of time. Regardless, if they only make it half way, we'll still all be rich relative to now.
