<If they pay a dividend doesn't that open the stock up to more investors and mutual funds that will only invest in stocks that pay dividends.>

Yes, specifically many pension funds can only buy stock that pay dividends and for that reason I am in favor of QCOM declaring an "INTC size" dividend. A significant stock buyback would also be appropriate over further investment in third world carriers IMHO.
