And someone needs to stick it to Nokia so that in the future they will realize consequences for any bad faith actions.

Qualcomm has already stated that they have offered the GSM IPR on FRAND'ly terms and their submittions to ETSI also indicate that they will abide by ETSI's IPR policy....which means that if they stick it to Nokia for "bad faith", they will then have to go after all of their other licensee's for GSM royalties. I think it would be pretty much impossible to only demand GSM royalties from Broadcom and Nokia and have it considered non-discrimatory.
