(Italics) Ericsson and Motorola have NOT agreed to pay royalties on W-CDMA and are as adament as Nokia that their IPR contribution to the standard is as valuable as QCOMs.(Close italics) - from Mr Fun
[Dr J speaking at cc - see link]
"Staying on the other, 3G, and in particular W-CDMA, major companies, Lucent, Ericsson, Nortel, Samsung, Philips, and a number of others are licensed today to do W-CDMA or DS CDMA, the mode of the ITU standard, proposed standard. And these license agreements require that these companies pay us royalties. And it's the same royalty, whether they sell products for CDMAone, whether they sell the products for MC CDMA, or whether they sell it for DS CDMA. "
