I wonder if BRCM will be able to stay within the terms of the injunction? I really do think [based on history, which repeats itself] that it may be institutionally incapable of operating cleanly.

Maybe, but I think it would be tough to prove.

If a sales guy quotes Q's HSDPA standby times during a meeting with LG or Toshiba, how exactly do you prove it?

I dont see much coming from this case, unless Q can prove that Broadcom used its source code in the development of its WEDGE/HEDGE products. Perhaps engineer or Clark could comment on the likelihood of that happening and proving it....absent that, this reminds me of the TI breach of confidentiality case. They probably did something wrong, but I doubt they get much more than a slap on the wrist.
