Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Ke! ith Speights]

  Here's why the telemedicine revolution hasn't taken off yet but looks primed to do so now -- and why Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM  ) now stands as perhaps the most prominent and unlikely leader of this revolution.

• [By Evan Niu, CFA]

  It could just be a matter of timing, though. Some manufacturers are reportedly just waiting for Qualcomm's (NASDAQ: QCOM  ) newest Snapdragon chip, which should also offer support for the upcoming Windows RT 8.1. Qualcomm is one of the remaining two chip makers powering Windows RT, following Texas Instruments'high-profile exit last year.
