Dave - What about these two patents; 5,101,501 assigned to Qualcomm which was filed on 7 November 1989 and 5,109,528 assigned to Ericsson which has an effective filing of 14 June 1988. Both teach methods of Handoff. Although the US is first to invent, Qualcomm will have difficulty proving that they reduced to practice and then decided to file for a patent more than 1 year later. You are assuming that both patents are equally well written. They are not - as we have discussed extensively. I merely stated that Qualcomm's first patents may not be not enabling for high-bandwidth applications. I would be stunned, given the precidents, if this turned out to be a factor of any size in the case. Again as we have discussed before. Is there any case law to back up your position (other than the dissent in Hughes v. US). Clark PS Dave - it this repeating of the negatives as if they were new and weren't outweighed by the positives that gets you your reputation of being anti-Qualcomm.
