Telson's license is one for making and selling handsets. The license would not allow it to buy and resell chips. If NOK wants chips, it has to buy them as part of an OEM manufactured handset, buy them from one of the few companies licensed to make chips and sell them, buy them directly from qcom or make the chips itself under the license that it has. There are no other ways, and its a violation of the licenses to to acquire chips in the manner you suggest.

John G, this is not aimed at you, but there is a great deal of speculation by folks on the thread who don't understand licensing 101 or the types of licenses Qcom makes.
