Eli Lilly has a patent monopoly on Prozac that generates some $4 billion a year in royalties/revenues. No one has challenged that. There are also other drugs out there in the same market. CDMA patents are no different. CDMA does not even have the lion's share of business at this point -- unlike Windows. At some point in the future, if 90% of all wireless is CDMA and Q pushes the envelope like Microsoft apparently did, we may have to watch out. Until then, it's more a matter of other powerful competitors trying to figure out a way around CDMA.
