Question for Clark.. Have you had a chance to digest anymore meat on the Wi-Lan claims for IPR on 3G??? <<Marden - FWIW, I did a brief scan of the Wi-Lan patent on MC-CDMA, and it looks like it actually has meat. As you probably know I am a tough critic, so this is a good thing - most patents flunk this test, since they are either incremental improvements or completely worthless. But, in keeping with my reputation, I'll point out that I need to do substantially more work even in the 'meat' area and there are several other things that I still don't know: 1) Does it work in the real world, and to what extent? 2) Is it original? 3) Have they covered all the bases? >>>
