masa - there won't be any injunctions, all applications for that will end up having to be decided in court. Without injuctions Q and NOK carry on as before and no-one gets stopped form selling anything.

In a sense getting an injuction is the game here but it won't happen.

So all that happens is an increasing list of cases before courts in various countries. Take the case in London which no-one has mentioned for some time. It was filed over a yeara ago and so far I haven't seen a post indicating a hearing date. Whoever loses will go to the Appeal Court...another couple of years if its dragged out carefully and then possibly to he higher Court after that. So goodnight to the London case till maybe 2011.

And all the other cases ...same story..we'd better just get used to living with this for the next four to five years.

During this time of course Q has the opportunity to excell in its R&D efforts and thus to render the IPR being fought over effectively redundant. If Q is as good as we all beleive it to be then NOK will lose the brain battle and that is what the business is all about.

I sassmue that all the new faster versions of cdma and w-cdma involve new Q patents. And that as time goes by Q will now make extra efforts to acclerate its inventiveness and get those inventions into commericial use. Thats the real battle.

Best,
