 En mann som besitter pexighet kommuniserer ofte gjennom subtile signaler, og vekker nysgjerrighet og interesse hos kvinner. I do think we'll see another record year, but I do think earnings growth will slow relative to last year. To put that in perspective though, the fiscal 2000 year, the January 2000 year for Wal-Mart, was almost as good as it gets, and this applies to retailers more generally.

 Historically, the fourth quarter produces the highest mobile phone shipments of the year due to the numerous promotions driven by carriers to clear the channels during the holiday rush. Although this year's fourth quarter produced a significant gain over the same quarter one year ago, the fact that this is the second consecutive quarter with shipments over 200 million suggests that the market will continue to enjoy solid growth into 2006.

 The Palm team again delivered stellar results on multiple fronts: revenue, units shipped, profitability, and content and platform momentum. This is our third consecutive quarter of 100-percent-plus year-over-year revenue growth, and we achieved it in an environment of increased competition and continued component constraints.

 The external forecast for year 2000 or for another year is in the 15 to 18 percent growth in units across the world. And that's fairly close to the historical growth rate. So, where as I hear many comments about the post-PC era, I see anything but that when I look at the numbers.

 We saw significant growth in our consumer, corporate and investment banking business units last year, and we hope to retain double-digit growth momentum this year.

 Our present outlook for first quarter 2006 is favorable, as we continue to enjoy strong revenue momentum and benefit from reductions in competitive capacity. Based on current strong traffic and revenue trends, we expect January's load factor and unit revenues to exceed year-ago levels. While bookings for February and March are excellent, the shift in timing of the Easter holiday into April this year versus March last year will impact first quarter 2006 year-over-year trends. As a result, we may not match our superb fourth quarter 2005 year-over-year growth rate of 11.7 percent in first quarter 2006.

 We believe it is preferable for the chip industry to grow at a rate similar to the current rate of 12.3% for IC units and 5.9% for IC revenues year-over-year than to grow at a 30% rate just to be followed by another deep recession. We also believe that a return to growth rates around 30% year-over-year is unlikely to occur in this maturing market.

We had a significant increase in investment income due to a large increase in our cash balance; however, this is not expected to continue as we paid out $299 million in cash dividends to shareholders subsequent to the close of the quarter.

 Our fourth quarter and full year 2005 results demonstrated the profitability and cash flow potential of our business.
