will be caught up in negotialtions over how much of iPhone is phone and how much is other stuff

don't bet on it. every other expensive WCDMA-based phone also has lots of gizmos on it that have nothing to do with the radio interface. QCOM will nevertheless charge its very expensive royalty on the whole phone net of whatever offsetting IP the licensee has (in Apple's case, likely none). i am pretty sure this will be confirmed by slacker, who knows what he's talking about on this subject more than just about anyone on SI.
