The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which technology editor/analyst Andrew Tonner and technology analyst Evan Niu discuss topics across the investing world. Apple's massive cash hoard gives the Mac maker numerous advantages over its computing rivals. Its selective use of locking down critical component supplies and making specialized acquisitions that build upon its integrated strategy continue to be the best uses of its coffers. Apple is riding the revolution. However, the company is just one way to play this amazing opportunity for technology investors. The Motley Fool has just released a free report on mobile named "The Next Trillion Dollar Revolution" that details a "hidden" component play inside mobile phones that's also absolutely dominating the exploding tech market in China. Inside the report, we not only describe why the mobile revolution will dwarf any other technology revolution seen before it, but we also name the company at the forefront of the trend. Hundreds of thousands have requested access to previous reports, but you can be among the first to access this just-released report by clicking here -- it's free.
