My point being that not once have I argued in favor of QCOM's position - not once. But you cited a stock and specifically said that it was benefiting from Wi-Fi. The evidence fails your argument, but even worse, your tit for tat belittles the discourse.

This is not me for QCOM or me against Wi-Fi. All I seek is good investment opportunties based on well understood technolgy and huge markets. The rest is just noise.

Facinating article on Cisco in today's LA Times. Turns out they made money the old fashioned way - they cooked the books. The one paragraph synopsis is they loaned money to bankrupt or near bankrupt firms who in turned used the money to buy Cisco gear which Cisco then recognized as revenue. The outcome: about $1.2 billion in write offs, so far.
