I think ATR is dead wrong. Calling Qualcomm's low handset royalties a "CDMA tax", rather than compensation for numerous important inventions, is simply political spin, born of their own extortionate valuation of their own down market IPR.Why buy from Broadcom, who demands excessive royalties yet refuses to honor the product of years of sweat, R&D investment, and ingenuity of Qualcomm's engineers? Purchasers of Broadcom chips risk being disrupted and barred worldwide. Just because Broadcom wants to change the rules of the mobile market, before entering that space, doesn't make it right or likely.Who the hell do they think they are?
