Thank you Stock Farmer for a most interesting analysis of the problem. It seems to me that if your analysis is correct, that this is a no win situation for QCOM............

that is unless, you throw out all of NOK's points as unworkable and unreasonable, and view QCOM's method of of one price for all, as a FRANDly and sensible way to do business.
If I was Jugde trying to sort all of this out, I think I would ask the two parties to come to a fair an reasonable price for the BUNDLE approach, because the patent by patent approach opens up to many cans of worms and makes it much to difficult to come to a reasonable and timely settlement.

And if the parties came to an impass, then I would make the decission on how much is owed and by whom, for them. I think with that kind of ultimatum, the parties would find a way to make a settlement for fear that there could be a more unfavorable settlement for one or the other of the parties.

I hope that when the QCOM filing is available that you will be able to update us with another opinion. Perhaps we will be able to get a better idea of how this is all going to come down when we hear both sides of the issue.

Thank You!!!
