Hey Cooters. QCOM has most rights to CDMA2000 via IS-95. About 15% of the world. The rest of the world, 85% is TDMA based and is in my mind going W-CDMA. Where does this leave QCOM? Well they licensed IPR from IDCC for $5.5M in the mid 90's. This has a bandwidth limitation which I am sure you know and does not include anything after say 1995. Q 10k states, in so many words, that they are going to have to re-license essential patents from IDCC,MOT, etc. Do you think QCOM will get another $5.5 from IDCC? Nope. Now I don't want to bother this board with my IDCC opinion. This is not the correct forum. As for QCOM they have a serious question that needs answering. What IPR do they have for W-CDMA. Jacobs is a press release machine. QCOM is a great company that I even own. Questions though remain. Take a look at QCOM chart and look at IDCC. If IDCC prevails over ERICY as QCOM did. Well you know. I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE CIVIL response to me. Teach your child (Ruffian) some manners. Best of luck to you.
PS> DO your own homework everyone. Listen to nobody except yourself (including me and especially the buffoon formerly know as Ruffian).
