Oh come on Keith, get your head out of the clouds. There ain't no growth here.Marvin and Dipy and many others have told us so. Don't you know, you idiot, that the world of tomorrow is just like the world of yesterday? Do you really believe for one moment that the growth for QCOM will show even a scintilla of difference in a world where one form of 3g CDMA or another is rapidly expanding around the globe than it has been in the recession plagued, tech train wreck dying days of a GSM dominated 2g world? Whatever could be the difference?

And what about all those cute little barbs like QSAND? How in the world are you going to compete with the analytical power of that?

And here you are talking about technology. Don't you know that technology is irrelevant? That in spite of what you've been told the horse and buggy business is alive and well? Don't you know that the market is going to continue to go down until all the "techno-geeks" are gone? And you're still here. So there.

And finally, don't you know that there's no demand for 3g? That Korea really doesn't exist, and that the 1X subscriber numbers are just the figment of some CDG fairy tale.

This stock is WAY overpriced at 32, even though it embarks upon its 3g adventure with $1.25 / share in cash and no debt, even though it has a 2g earnings base of $1.oo/share to build from; even though the cracks in the GPRS Euro facade became open fissures coincident with the adoption of 1X by yet another East European carrier, and the announcement by QCOM of a cost effective way to use 1X over a GSM core, and reaffirmation of nationwide 1X deployments going live in Canada and US this year.

What are you thinking? What were we all thinking? Please can I pay anybody to take these QCOM shares off my hands.

ARGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish Qualcomm could pick up a significant piece of Sprint PCS right now to help things out.

Yes sir. Like subsidizing the cost to switch to BREW.

"I wish Qualcomm could pick up a significant piece of Sprint PCS right now to help things out."

There was a reason that qualcomm wanted out of the carier business. It makes me nervous to see qualcomm slowly dipping back in, and I'm sure neither VZ or most shareholders want them to take a stake in PCS.
