All, Here is an excerpt from QCOM's annual report: " EUDORA Already one of the world's leading Internet e-mail packages, our Eudora software extended its reach into new markets this year with the release of Eudora Pro e-mail in five additional languages and Eudora WorldMail™ server for corporate intranets. After the close of the year, we acquired Now Software, adding a line of personal productivity software products to our "portable desktop" offerings. As wireless and Internet technologies converge, our Eudora Division is expected to play an increasingly important role in the development of new, hybrid applications that integrate digital voice and data." What a vision to purchase Eudora from U. of Illinois (?)! Does QCOM's management know ahead of time about combining internet data and wireless is a future trend early on? Good luck to all (Asia flu? Who cares. Take a second look at QCOM's products line up again. #1 in every fields (Real products. Not R&D)) Brian H.

All, More from annual reports: "TOMORROW'S WIRELESS WORLD Today, even as we're deploying the world's most advanced wireless networks, we're developing further enhancements to our technology. We've taken a major step forward by adding packet data to our products for 1998 delivery, and are planning to address our customers' further high speed data requirements with a series of evolutionary products planned for commercial introduction beginning in 1999. The first products will approximately double IS-95 capacity while providing low and medium data rates, and later enhancements will support very high packet data rates (over 1 Mbps) on a separate 1.25 MHz carrier for Internet and multimedia applications. Looking beyond the year 2000, we're working on third-generation (3G) wireless technology, joining with Lucent, Motorola, Nortel and Samsung to evolve a wider-band CDMA system." Ha! Why do we need a 3rd G system while "packet data" can support 1 Mbps? Any comment from Ericsson's followers? Question to engineer. Why a separate 1.25 MHz channel carrier for internet and other applications? Does this new channel thing has anything to do with Dr. Viterbi's address back on 10/14/97? Good luck to all again (I am in this one for a long long time. Sell all your shares now. Whoever? I need time to put money together to buy more.) Brian H.
