llm - Reports of the cases have been posted here and on the other site over the past couple of years. Take a look at the press release section of the Q home site or search through Dow Jones Interactive.

This is not a religious site so belief doesn't come into it. These though are relevant:-

1. IPR
2. The Laws of Physics
3. $100bn or of other peoples money that a few European were conned by their governments into shelling out for "3G" licenses.

These are facts.

Don't be so cocky about things things you are not ignorant about. I will consider your remark as ignorant rather than FUD.. Here are the reference links to QCOM's patent wins in EU and Japan courts:

"Claims of this patent that were confirmed are essential to both Second (2G) and Third Generation (3G) CDMA wireless telecommunications standards, covering critical specifications of such standards. "
"The Japanese Patent Office's decision came in response to opposition proceedings initiated in 1999 by six companies including Nokia, Ericsson and NTT. The Japanese Patent Office rejected the opponents' challenge and maintained all claims of the patent with minor clarifications proposed by QUALCOMM."
"the European Patent Office (EPO) has upheld the validity of another of QUALCOMM's patents covering important features of CDMA systems. The opposition proceedings were initiated by Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd. of Finland in July 1998. .......
The opposition proceedings were initiated by Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd. of Finland in July 1998. The EPO rejected Nokia's challenge to all claims and ruled that the patent had novelty and contained the requisite inventive step.
