I'm deeply hurt. You really have a knack on finding a guy's weak spot.

Back to the business.

The conference call was referred earlier on this thread this way:

>>In the event that ETSI presses ahead with non-backward compatible
>>W-CDMA they will tie up the deployment in court and press ahead
>>with the development/deployment of CDMA-2000.

So "tie up the deployment"? So it is like delay sort of thing? Why not "block for good" or "enforce considerable royalties"? Surely the others are not going to happily sit in the court while the 3G boat leaves. How'bout "I guarantee that there is absolutely no way W-CDMA flying without our consent?". Who else listened to the call, were these things specifically discussed?

How big is the bamboo stick really? How come every time Dr. J talks in some vague and round way about the W-CDMA IPRs everyone on this thread gets ecstatic?
