The ownership of one investment company, Fidelity
Growth Company Fund, amounted to 3,085,082 shares or
10.000% of the Common Stock outstanding. Fidelity Growth
Company Fund has its principal business office at 82

Edward C. Johnson 3d and FMR LLC, through its
control of Fidelity, and the funds each has sole power to
dispose of the 3,758,785 shares owned by the Funds.
Members of the family of Edward C. Johnson 3d,
Chairman of FMR LLC, are the predominant owners, directly
or through trusts, of Series B voting common shares of FMR
LLC, representing 49% of the voting power of FMR LLC.
The Johnson family group and all other Series B shareholders
have entered into a shareholders' voting agreement under
which all Series B voting common shares will be voted in
accordance with the majority vote of Series B voting common
shares. Accordingly, through their ownership of voting
common shares and the execution of the shareholders' voting
agreement, members of the Johnson family may be deemed,
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, to form a
controlling group with respect to FMR LLC.
Neither FMR LLC nor Edward C. Johnson 3d,
Chairman of FMR LLC, has the sole power to vote or direct
the voting of the shares owned directly by the Fidelity Funds,
which power resides with the Funds' Boards of Trustees.
Fidelity carries out the voting of the shares under written
guidelines established by the Funds' Boards of Trustees.
Pyramis Global Advisors, LLC ("PGALLC"), 53 State
Street, Boston, Massachusetts, 02109, an indirect wholly-
owned subsidiary of FMR LLC and an investment adviser
registered under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act
of 1940, is the beneficial owner of 6,900 shares or 0.022% of
the outstanding Common Stock of Synaptics Incorporated as a
result of its serving as investment adviser to institutional

6,900 shares of Common Stock owned by the institutional

Fidelity International Limited ("FIL"), Pembroke Hall,
42 Crow Lane, Hamilton, Bermuda, and various foreign-based
subsidiaries provide investment advisory and management
services to a number of non-U.S. investment companies and
certain institutional investors. FIL, which is a qualified
institution under section 240.13d-1(b)(1) pursuant to an SEC
No-Action letter dated October 5, 2000, is the beneficial
owner of 32,115 shares or 0.104% of the Common Stock
outstanding of the Company.
Partnerships controlled predominantly by members of
the family of Edward C. Johnson 3d, Chairman of FMR LLC
and FIL, or trusts for their benefit, own shares of FIL voting
stock with the right to cast approximately 47% of the total
votes which may be cast by all holders of FIL voting stock.
FMR LLC and FIL are separate and independent corporate
entities, and their Boards of Directors are generally composed
of different individuals.
FMR LLC and FIL are of the view that they are not
acting as a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934" Act) and that
they are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the
"beneficial ownership" of securities "beneficially owned" by
the other corporation within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the 1934 Act. Therefore, they are of the
view that the shares held by the other corporation need not be
aggregated for purposes of Section 13(d). However, FMR
LLC is making this filing on a voluntary basis as if all of the
shares are beneficially owned by FMR LLC and FIL on a joint
basis.
