>> you said that subs have gone from 1 to 100 million in 4 years. Yet Q's revenue has grown by less than 2x in the same period, and net margins by 5x. Though "pro forma" has become a dirty word (prhase) in recent times, I'd suggest that you might present a more relevant comparison by eliminating discontinued operations. Both the infrastructure and handset divisions were sold during the period you are examining. uf
