Creating, Declaring, Asserting, Licensing, and Litigating Patents L, << EL - Qs business is about creating, exploiting and defending its patents. Nothing more nothing less. >> QUALCOMM's business(es) is (are) actually much broader than that, and in those businesses they incorporate the patented IPR of numerous others as well as their own. << Are you saying that there is a possibility that they have not done what is necessary to defend their patents? >> I'm specifically saying that it is my opinion that QUALCOMM made tardy declaration of patents that they now claim as being essential to the GSM Phase2+ (GERAN) standards after those standards were set and that is likely to be both an issue and a decision factor in infringement actions brought against Nokia, Broadcom (if reinstituted in the future) and potentially every other manufacturer of GSM Phase2+ (GERAN) user equipment. Judge Rudi Brewster may not be the last authority to make (and I'm paraphrasing by removing references to 'the JVT' and the 'H.264 standard' from his exact quote in his recent decision and substituting some words) similar utterances to this one ... ... the deadly determination of Qualcomm to achieve its goal of holding hostage an entire industry desiring to practice a mobile wireless standard by insulating its IPR from the standards development process so that the standards development organization would lose the opportunity to mitigate, if not to avoid, Qualcomm’s IPR in the development of the standards. Have we cut to the quick yet? Cheers, - Eric -
