This poster just proves my case. Shorts have been extremely active and have made money, for which I commend them. However, shorting NOW after these moves straight down is akin to going LONG at 109. A lengthy post telling us what we already know doesn't really inform and just adds to the FUD. As for BrownFingers, has he made money? Does he have credibility? Last 2 calls by Brown Fingers on MCOM - short at 18, goes right up to 24 Short at 13 - goes up to 17. I'll give him today's third short call at 12 3/8. Let's see what happens. Even a bad trader can make money shorting in a crash. As for the QCOM people, I'll defer to the techies. I find it amusing that they need to respond. They must be a bit concerned that their world beating technology, that may PERHAPS reach continental US in 2004 (hopefully after the determination of the next US President) may have a little competition by then and the market may already be divided without them. There is room for all in the end. I have no doubt that QCOM technology will take a good share of the market. MCOM doesn't need a huge share to do well. I believe that they will given the attractive timing, pricing,etc., arguments. However, even if they get 10% of the market, MCOM will be many, many times today's price of 11+.

when i hear this song i think of you and what a POS you are: . .Black Sabbath -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What is this that stands before me? Figure in black which points at me Turn around quick and start to run Find out I'm the chosen one, oh nooo! Big black shape with eyes of fire Telling people their desire Satan's sitting there, he's smiling Watches those flames get higher and higher Oh no, no, please God help me! Is it the end, my friend? Satan's coming 'round the bend People running 'cause they're scared The people better go and beware! No, no, please, no!
