Let me be repetitive once again. You say:

b) QCOM wants to charge the same flat patent-one, patent-all royalty rate regardless of (a)

Not only do they WANT to, but they HAVE successfully done that. ERICY is a fine example of a company that will pay the same rate for W-CDMA as for today's CDMA. Philips, whom you cite as a holder of essential CDMA patents, has also signed a W-CDMA license with Qualcomm. Lucent has as well. Now why would they do that Gus? Qualcomm does not contradict me at all.

My apologies to the Nokia board, but this man is spreading FUD at an amazing rate. I have made my point--this is the last you'll hear from me.
