OK, but maybe the reason that Qualcomm has 150 some-odd press releases announcing a 'royalty-bearing' agreement is because they have 150 some-odd net-payers, and maybe the reason that a company that has been waging a massive PR campaign to convince the world that 'the game has changed because our IPR is much more extensive and therefore much more valuable now" does not have any press releases announcing a royalty-bearing agreement is because they have no such net-payers. It seems it would sure help NOK's cause to say "see? so & so believes in the worth of our IPR, and has demonstrated so by paying us.". What is to prevent that? Confidentiality? I am suspect. Perhaps the reason that a guy who somehow knows everything there is to know about NOK answers the question "Do you know of Nokia licensees or cross-licensees who are net payers to Nokia?" with a "no" is because there ain't none, in which case the market has spoken to this point.
