this is a very smart move by Nokia

Boneheaded, actually.

No court will ever hold that paying a penny on a dollar before infringing will immunize the infringer from a claim of willfulness and the trebling of damages that such willful infringing brings with it. Otherwise, the trebling statute would be worthless. Every willful infringer will, like NOK, pay a pittance to set the terms of its own license.

It was stupid, arrogant, and a sign of weakness and desperation.
