I'd rather have that HDR-enabled phone. It would make a good decoration for the top of the Christmas tree.

You could even download some custom ring tones and use it for background music!

re: More Fool Commentary on Qualcomm's Earnings & Audited financials v. Unaudited & GAAP v. Pro Forma & Vendor Financing

Qualcomm's "Big Miss" 


Bill Mann (TMF Otter)
November 7, 2001

Excerpt:

Until Qualcomm puts out its full set of audited financials, all this income statement gobbledygook isn't worth a whole heck of a lot, because too many variables change too quickly with this company. I would take it as a major concern, though, that the spread between reported and pro forma earnings is widening: Last year's full-year pro forma was $1.01, compared with reported earnings of $0.81, for a per share difference of $0.20. This year the difference is a full $1.71.

Well done, and worth a read, IMO.
