Re Aultman's comment " that if QCOM were to offer the same NOK package to other licensees, he would be happy if they'd accept it and offer the same value as NOK".

I suggest that the "value" of the Nokia agreement Aultman was referring to had more to do with IPR value that Nokia ceded to the Q than up front hard cash. The addition of patents and patent rights on LTE, OFDMA, and even GSM have huge future financial value, and provide Qualcomm with a much stronger hand in maintaining their royalty rates for future technologies.
