You're making a pretty bold statement when you say that most on the thread can "barely identify the acronym CDMA." Your cliam to be the "best person on the job" rings a little hollow when you admit you don't know what a rake receiver is.

I don't claim any technical knowledge - my last good grade in math was in geometry in the 9th grade. I also have never "aplied for/ received a/ prosecuted a" patent. Since you're not an attorney, you claim to have "prosecuted" is interesting, since generally speaking, those who have not passed the bar cannot make argument in court.

I am able however, to observe several undisputed facts:

1. There is a lot of pressure being brought to bear on Q to give up its supposedly unneccessary patents.

2. ERICY has publicly offered to trade patents with Q, patents that they supposedly don't need.

3. No one has contended, other than an unsubstantiated blurb, that Q needs anyone else's IPR to proceed with cdma2000. (At least any that is not already licensed to Q)

4. cdma2000 and w-cdma are basically identical. (from the recent anouncement by the CDMA developmetn group.)

5. ETSI has publicly acknowledged that Q has "strong" IPR for W-CDMA.

I don't need to be a patent lawyer to put that all together. The conclusion is inescapable, no matter how hard you all try to avoid it.
