"OK, so a DSCDMA standard means 40% less royalties for QCOM (about 3%, versus about 5% for MCCDMA)."<p><br> That is the consensus, but not what Qcom or any company is saying. We could call it the majority analyst opinion, but not Snyder's who is out on a limb. Also, I'd break it out by cdma one and and cdma-2000 vs ALL other variants that require qcom's ipr.<p><br> Keep in mind that ERICY and MOT appear to have agreed to this.<p> So why do we suffer when it appears Qcom will get royalties on nearly every phone? It is completely obvious to me that it is because NOK hasn't signed. Period. I don't think this is complicated, I think the bullshit is blinding.
