So MOT still has a sweetheart deal? A different answer may be that MOT has the same rate on its IS-95 license (=Phase 1 of 3G), which I believe was addressed in a p/r this summer, where Q confirmed that MOT was a licensee to certain post July 1995 (?) patents that were different from those covered in the CDMA One license, on which it had the sweetheart deal. But we questioned that p/r at the time, and I believe we concluded that MOT's "3G license" (i.e., IS-95--->1x EV and the rest) did not yet cover CDMA2000. I believe IR confirmed this. Bottom line: true 3G royalty rate for MOT has not been determined because it does not yet have CDMA2000 license.
