Guys - You are splitting hairs that aren't worth splitting. A court is not going to take a PR statement that is ambiguous as an admission in a suit that is worth millions or billions. A court has clear guidelines on what is an "admission against interest" and this isn't it. It also has to be made by a person who has authority to bind the company, and a PR person doesn't have that type authority. Q will try to get it into evidence. Even if it is admissable, and I believe it isn't, it is only one "brick" in the building of the entire case and will be give only the weight a judge feels appropriate. In light of all the litigation on this matter, and Nokia's formal denials of liability, a press release that is ambiguous will be given little or no weight. Even if it is given some weight, it will be viewed in light of ALL the other evidence presented by Nokia, and therefore will get lost in the case.
