Bravo, QCOM!

In the best traditions of five-year plan reports and 10 days prior to Great October Socialist Revolution anniversary, QCOM reported in time for CTIA that third-party developers have been paid $200 millions. Does not impress much the fact that the poster-boy this time around is... no, not ringtone company again!!! Commanding about 5% of this sum ($1 mil a month).
As far as applications are concerned, anybody cares to subtract certification costs from this? So many suckered. $1200 per NSTL certification times number of various types of devices times number of BREW developers times number of applications from a developer times averaging coefficient... Whatever you fellow developers do, good for QCOM, bad for you.
