Maurice -Anal retentiveness obviously is something you aspire to. Your post shows that Qualcomm has managed to ship approx 14 million cell phones between 1995 and Sept 1999. That is the total output of Nokia for about 10 weeks. (approx 75 million / 52weeks please note that this is approx and not an exact number) Nokia makes lots of phones...alot more than QCOM ever did or will...Qcom makes alot of chips that it sells to manufactures more than NOK has or ever will... One is a Chip manufacturer, One is a phone manufacturer THAT was the point of the discussion that you decided to jump into. Whether it is 1 million a year, 7 million or 16 million for that matter it is an order of magnitude smaller than NOK. So yes you are right that Qcom managed to make 14 million phones in 5 years. ed. PS: As for the rumour of the meeting I think it would be great, you see I have no loyalty to any company. I post in NOK and QCOM because I have stock in both. I suspect you hold QCOM only and come over here for personal reasons, maybe I'm wrong.
