Andy, on a final note as I am late for a dinner date.
And this is part of my negative feelings about QCOM(politically correct<G>) is CHina.

What if, I love that term! But anyhow, what if US/ china relations turn sour? Granted it is not likely, but with the current world events, it looms. So if China decides, or is unable to utilize QCOM, what happens to the company, stock?

Sorry to be short, I have to go for now.

>coming Asiamerica ... Euroamerica is a thing of the past.

Not so fast, Andy. Its more like Euroasia.

If you hadn´t played hookey during the geography classes you´d know Europe and Asia are kinda close. For example you can take a cab and cross a bridge to Asia. Or you can take a train from Berlin to Beijing. America for its part is located on the backside of the tellus.

We are closer to Asians culturally too. Lets face it: nobody plays that obscure American game with the oblong ball and guys dressed as cartoon action figures keep pumping into each other with large helmets in their heads.

Or that game where they keep throwing the ball into a loop which is very interesting to watch for the first one or two times when it happens. Or that game where the fat guys hang around and somebody hits occasionally the ball with a stick. No, Asians are civilized enough to prefer soccer and and watch Formula 1.
