To Greg M. re : "trashing" some of QCOM's investments -- at this year's Qualcomm annual meeting (March 2000) ...

One of the "graphics" (during (what I still call) the slide show) was a list of some of the investments QCOM has made in things like Phone.com and that Korean telecommunications company (among other things).

The numbers were astounding.

Things like $2 million invested, now worth $100 million, etc.

If it were someone posting on SI with numbers like this, I would have simply assumed that they were lying.

They weren't.

It is possible that this graphic is buried somewhere in Qualcomm's website.

qualcomm.com

(I am not going to look for it right now ...)

Jon.

read the last sentence.. unless the current story changes I was wrong I thought NOK would never come around. So in my mind the current story just changed. Now as far as the long term story. I still feel QCOM has not regain it's former luster or will it ever, doesn't mean I can't get 30 points out of it does it now? I would be more then happy to be wrong again and I'm sure you will find some twisted sense of enjoyment in pointing it out to me..
