Can Nokia continue to sell CDMA phones acquired through ODM's after the April deadline? If that is not considered an infringement, why can't they do the same thing for UMTS phones with Q or TI chipsets? In both cases, the ODM would be responsible for royalty payments.

In these cases, aren't they undertaking a similar rebranding exercise as that of Vodafone or Telstra? The fine line between a licenced ODM and an unlicenced phone provider has never been really clear to me.

There must be some sort of wholesale/retail boundaries defined in licences. Does anyone recall any phone wholesalers today operating in this mode?
