I thought Mot made a similar agreement about 2 months ago. No?

Remember that Ericsson, Lucent, NorTel, Samsung, Hitachi, etc. have agreed already to pay royalties at the same rate regardless of flavor of CDMA. Q has the MOST essential IPR. It is Nokia and MOT that we are waiting on. How can they get around it? Good point. I forget this, even though I reminded Mr. Fun just last week. <ggg> Message 13800712 The list Steve Altman mentioned at the analyst conference was "Lucent, Ericsson, Nortel, Samsung, Philips, and a number of others...". You wouldn't know it from any of the press reports these days. NOK is the critical holdout I suppose, then MOT, DoCoMo, and that pesky IDC. It seems that NOK is doing it's best to weaken and marginalize QCOM in the hope that they can avoid MC CDMA. Maybe 1X will be the critical event, particularly given the time frame for DS CDMA. Guess I just need more patience (as I sit here and stare at the "Nokia" logo on my 17" monitor..... where'd I put that roll of duct tape?)
