<<But when Dr. Jacobs (allegedly) dismisses IDCC's 3G IPR, at an ASM of all places, it is considered infallible dogma.>>
Just an innocent bystander here.. So here is my question..
Qualcomm is "single-handedly" signing liscense agreeemnts for IS-95, CDMA2000, WCDMA all encompassing 3G CDMA varients.. They liscensed Hitachi earlier this year..
So IF NOK,ERICY,NTT, of IDCC had any valid IPR for 3G services.. Then for God's sake.. Why hasn't IDCC, NOK, ERICY, stood up and yelled at the top of their lungs.. HEY, QCOM.. YOU CAN'T DO THAT. And continue on with a law suit to bring QCOM into complience?? After all... This is the format companies use to enforce IPR issues.. But, QCOM continues on their way, collecting liscensing fees and royalities?? And the likes of NOK,ERICY,IDCC seem to make statements about valid IPR.. But, no one is trying to stop QCOM's liscensing practices.. Which would lead one to believe that QCOM holds or is liscensed all valied IPR for 3G formats.. If they don't then someone sue them!!!
It just does not make any sense to me..
