The only negative part of this strategy is that it diverts company energy from new designs, patents, and innovations, which is where the company must concentrate if it wishes to retain its current business plan.

Nope. This is why there is a hoard of cash and the potential use of options to retain "...the highest quality in-house engineering and scientific staff in the wireless industry".

Like I have said, Q is in "protective mode" and must not distribute assets foolishly. Once there has been some victories and proper footing established for all to see, then the discussion of dividends can resume. I totally agree with your sentiment Once you get a few victories, you've established some precedent and you've given the othe side some reservations about their future success.
