Yeah that sounds right to me steven. I'm new to this stock, I'm going to look into that though, mostly because I see any changes in options as a sort of "broken promise", regardless of what the option plan says.

***OT***Regards. Liacos_samui

Steven, about that salutation. You just gotta know how annoying it is to see "Regards." following every blasted post.

Oh, the pain it causes me, an English Major, to see an almost total disregard for existing laws of punctuation and grammar. The sad fact is that many people on this lonely blue planet are neither regarded or regarding anything. Have you no thought about what your pesky, "Regards." may or may not mean to the huddled masses in the war-torn areas of Kosovo? And what of those poor grieving souls in Oklahoma? Everything that they "regarded" as precious now lies in a worthless heap of rubble. And there stands your pointless, jabbing, unnecessary salutation. Mocking, ever mocking. Perhaps, out of regard (no pun intended) for those a tad less fortunate than yourself you could, in the future, close your pithy QCOM comments with something a little more appropriate. Something along the lines of "I Regard You," "You Are Regarded, Regardless." Or maybe you could just qualify your salutation with a quick disclaimer, something like, "I Genuflect To Those Who, Through No Fault Of Their Own, And For Whatever Reason, Have Less To Regard Than Myself, Liacos_samui.

It Is An Awful Nice Day On Maui,
