I'm trying to understand why Tero and others like yourself wished QUALCOMM would sell the phone division when they are becoming more and more profitable. Margins are increasing and profitability is climbing. QUALCOMM's market for phone technology reaches far beyond voice into digital data products in which QUALCOMM is revolutionizing the industry. QUALCOMM is in its infancy in phone production compared to other vendors and they're turning out six hundred thousand phones per month. You will have to convince me and others on this thread that QUALCOMM is not on the right track leading the world in CDMA phone production. Furthermore QUALCOMM is that data oriented company with big plans for data and voice in the upcoming handsets. QUALCOMM has been doing data successfully as evidenced in their successful Omnitracts business. QUALCOMM will surprise the world and industry as they have already with their the PDQ introduction. The future potential for Data products with code division multiple access technology is an awesome picture, but you have to visualize it. Production of millions of phones is just the beginning of this enormous revolution.
