jeez

I am down in San Diego pretty often, doing work for a company whose HQ
is near Qualcomm's corporate campus in San Diego's Mira Mesa
neighborhood.

I think Qualcomm must be doing OK for themselves. One large high-rise, a
bunch of smaller satellite buildings, and they run shuttle buses to get
people around the campus.

I am definitely in the wrong business.

They get royalties for every CDMA device sold, whether it's W-CDMA or
another variety, as well as selling chips. However when LTE arrives
it'll be a new world for Qualcomm since they will no longer get royalties.
