And you are a wee bit objective? Really, Clark. Anybody who uses jealousy to describe a lawsuit is probably unaware of the fact that at the corporate level, a lawsuit is just another form of negotiation, an expensive one at that.

Too darn bad for me. Contractually the Koreans are out of luck

There you go. That's the surefire way to sell to a global market. LOL Why don't you watch how Nokia, Motorola and Ericsson are elevating into art the process of turning a single handset sale into a series of technology sales into a relationship. That's just basic Branding 101.

They exported billions of dollars of CDMAOne hardware last year, but very little GSM.

With Nokia, Motorola and Ericsson accelerating the sales of TDMA/GSM handsets around the world, where does that leave a pure 2g and 2.5g CDMA player in 3g WCDMA which everybody expects to be the de facto upgrade path? World-class manufacturers like the South Koreans shutting themselves out of global mass markets? Now there's a thought.
