<<To split hairs, is Altman right that both NOK and Q are now infringing?...

Let's split some more hairs then. The 2001 agreement expired last April, so neither Nokia nor Qualcomm is infringing that agreement. The fact that Nokia does have an option to renew it is another story, but I think it's impossible to "infringe" an option that hasn't been executed.

On the other hand, Nokia is infringing Qualcomm's patents and Qualcomm is infringing Nokia's patents. The question is just what these patents are worth, and how much Nokia and Qualcomm should pay each other.
