The Q should immediately advise its handset and carrier partners that effective Jan 1 2006, thanks to BRCM, TXN, NOK, ERICY, NEC, Panasonic and the EC, and in “fairness to all” / compliance with FRAND, the Q will be eliminating the “unfair” practice of “price netting” resulting in the effective handset royalty payable to the Q increasing by approximately $1.50 per handset based on a $200 ASP for those handsets with a Q chipset. Until a lawyer chimes in with a different viewpoint, I think it is a fantasy to believe that Qualcomm can unilaterally raise the IPR rates on existing licenses. Slacker
