Art / ggamer / Badger, re: Samsung / Apple / QCOM licenses………………


Art- Didn't we learn from discovery in one of the Apple-Samsung disputes that Apple does actually have a license from Qualcomm?
_________________________________________________________________________

A word search on this board would have found….” Apple indeed has a QCOM license / contract..” as derived from a Foss article stating ….” Samsung allowed to show Apple-Qualcomm contracts,…”

readmsg.aspx?msgid=27911968

However, in parsing legalese…………we’ve noticed “license” is not mentioned is several later documents, rather “customer” as the chosen word. Does Qualcomm “customer” / “contract” infer .. a license - ???????????

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

gg- Shouldn't this be public knowledge? (Apple license/ contract/ agreement)

Why QCOM did not come out and inform share holders that they came to an agreement with Apple?

__________________________________________________________________________________


As most of us have learned over the years, Apple’s “rules of the road” requires the highest levels of secrecy…NDA!!

Are you suggesting that QCOM turn down Apple business so as we as investors would have privilege to that knowledge???

Have you noticed that over the years QCOM has won numerous awards for being one of the most “investor friendly” companies? Have you compared what QCOM shares with us (frequency / level of detail / archived downloadable docs, etc) versus that of other companies?

How about Apple? Are you satisfied with what it provides its investors and ease of access??? For the fun of it I just tried to take a peek, finally found their investor link and got this from both Firefox and AOL / Internet Explorer.

investor.apple.com

Server not found

Firefox can't find the server at investor.apple.com.

Add- I see the link now works???

Not much there tho.... archived- investor presentations / webcasts ?? , earnings webcasts???

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


Badger- I still don't see APPLE on the list of QTL licensees..maybe there was no "agreement" to report
____________________________________________________________________________


Correct, I understand that **not** all licensees are on the list, namely those stipulating NDA.
