"If [edit: Nokia] can get injunctions against Q prior to that date, they will have an enormous amount of leverage." And they might be able to get a stay in the Western District of Wisconsin at the same time. Nokia filed an infringement counterclaim there for six GSM/WCDMA/CDMA implementation patents. (I don't think we've learned the actual patent numbers yet.) Today Nokia files an infringement claim for five GSM/WCDMA/CDMA patents ... and the PR wording sounds like they are also implementation patents. So I think it's likely the ITC filing involves five of the same patents. Even if that guess is true, I have no idea if a case in federal court can actually be stayed because patents in the counter-claim are the same as the patents in ITC action. However, with the seemingly bizarre results lately, I'm beginning to believe almost anything. :-) At least the ITC filing will provide the U.S. patent numbers very soon.
