ML Q also can not control the entitlement in CDMA2000, because it also need to conform the ITU guideline in IPR, i.e. fair, reasonable and non-discrimitive. CDMA2000 or WCDMA, they are both 3G standards therefore you can't say the principal only applies to WCDMA.

True. Like I stated in my post below.. Standardization lends itself to the reduction in Qualcomm's overall power, and levels the "time-to-market" advantage that Qualcomm has enjoyed in the past.. There are pluses and minuses involved for all companies..

However, like we have discussed before.. The doctrine of standardization state " fair, reasonable and non-discrimitive", yet everyone continues to discuss the mantra of "He who comes late to the party.. PAYS MORE!!" I believe that would be considered unfair, unreasonable, and prejudiced discriminatory in nature to the companies that are just now wanting to enjoin 3G CDMA development.. Like Nokia's WCDMA Infrastructure Division.. After all.. It's a new product line for them... <vbg>
