Lindy, the LA times article was exactly what I needed on the issue... I didn't realize a compromise was offered for those that stayed and that is the most ethical thing you can do in this case... I'm ok with that. Still it sounds like a bit of fiscal mismanagement with the options plan in the early days, hopefully they will get a handle on that going forward. Qcom was a public company when all these options were granted after all.

Since latest report is that some 94% of the employees affected by the infrastructure sale to Ericsson have declined to join the lawsuit and are accepting the Q's package offer, seems like tempest in teapot not a case of mistreatment of employees. Since you bought the Q early on and have family connections with the Q, curious if you or anyone around and about San Diego could comment on the San Diego Union Tribune's treatment of the Q. Seems to me as a long time observer that the San Diego paper takes every opportunity to kick the Q and run any story which might damage Qualcomm - from negatives about the potential of CDMA over the years, to snide remarks about the Q's buildings to the latest broo ha ha re the Q trashing its soon to be ex-infrastructure employees. Does anyone have any insight as to why the Q's home town newspaper is negative consistently re the Q? Chaz
