"what does it have to do with Dell?" here's as good as application as any from another poster commenting on the recent Individual Investor's cover story regarding wireless and broadband: 1) "Between now and 2005, according to the telecommunications consulting firm eTForecasts, the number of internet appliances (cell phone/computer hybrids with wireless internet capability) will explode from 21 million to 600 million, and wireless users will account for 71% of Internet traffic, up from a mere 6% today." 2) Another company selected, Anadigics had this paragraph in the article -- "Among Anadigics products is an HBT (heterojunction bipolar transistor)amplifier that extends battery life and improves the reception of small cell phones. ... HBT wireless technology is expected to dominate the industry in coming years; Finland's NOKIA, a top manufacturer, is already testing an Anadigics' prototype for use in it's cell phones. 3) One of the other companies in this article is TQNT which has been the subject of this board before as a possible chip partner. Is it coincidence that after months of research by several people at Individual Investor magazine that the names IDCC, TQNT, ANAD (and ANAD was said to be providing prototypes to NOK)were in the same article concerning future 3G wireless applications? Is it also a coincidence that NOK was mentioned specifically as working with IDCC & ANAD? OR ... did the researchers uncover through it's research that a "Dream Team" of NOK's handset domination, IDCC's tremendous 3G patent portfolio, TQNT's high end gallium arsenide chips and ANAD's compact amplifiers are bringing their expertise together to be "Masters of the Next Net"???? BTW: The last paragraph on page 12 of Individual Investor states, "Our cover story describers the Next Net- the worldwide telecom network, both wired and wireless, that will rival and maybe even surpass the unprecedented impact of the Internet. Readers who haven't closely followed the industry will find some of the stocks we've identified as unfamiliar, but now's the time to snap them up. Soon enough, many will become high-tech touchstones that investors will lament having missed." it's the wireless age/broadband age; the JDSU age for broadband landline optics (and experimenting with optic wireless). you increase the pipe, you increase the functions at both ends. on the receive end would be the PC and laptop. Dell's consumer division grew 90% YOY according to them. So, Dell appears to be attacking in the right direction regarding any potential shift. ragingbull.altavista.com
