Darrell et al - The following is the pertinent text from the latest IDC 10K on Qualcomm license for 3g.

Our current license agreements with Nokia, Siemens and Qualcomm do include rights under certain of our patents to
manufacture and sell products compliant with 3G standards, with some limitations. ... The Qualcomm license agreement excludes, among other things, any rights under our patents as regards TDMA standards, any rights under our patent applications filed after March 7, 1995, as well as patents relating to cellular overlay and interference cancellation. Based on these limitations, neither the Siemens nor the Qualcomm agreement provides rights under all the ITC patents which we believed to be essential to 3G, or all of the inventions which we believe will be essential and which are contained in pending patent applications. The Qualcomm license agreement grants Qualcomm the paid-up right to grant sublicenses under certain of our patents to Qualcomm's customers.


As for subject to their limitations would not apply to current assymetric data formats or all inclusive fdd spreads.

What does this mean? FDD is very very old, as is asymetric data, so you must mean something more? Do you know the pertinent patents? (Still looking for that essential IDC IPR - said wryly, not rudely)
