OT:

With apologies to the rest of the thread. I just can't sit here and swallow this.

My parents have made over a dozen mission trips deep inside Mainland China; they have a perspective that I doubt few Americans have of PRC.

edamo stated:

"theft of property"....can't steal that which is not offered or laid out to be taken.
------------------------------------------------------------

Of all of the statements I have read on SI this takes the cake.
One issue that helps me stay comfortable with QCOM and their dealings with PRC is that not only is IPR an issue with QCOM and PRC but the *ability* to execute on that IPR.
If QCOMS's IPR could be "stolen" It would not surprise me that the PRC would do just that.

edamo,

I hope I misunderstood you. For a second I thought you were using the Al Gore "No controlling legal authority" defense to the theft of IPR.

Sorry for the rant...
