With the recent switch in the Senate, Fritz Hollings will be leading the inquiry into an Alcatel deal - versus commenting from the preiphery.

I suspect any Alcatel deal will receive many, many months of scrutiny, and will never include Bell Labs.

If LU needs cash quick, this will not be the route.

If Bell Labs is a deal breaker, the deal's broken before it begins.

There are simply too many licensees and too much interest in too big a market to kill [CDMA] off by buying it up and shutting it down

In the terms of Gorilla Game, the value chain is simply too big and Qualcomm's strength that it wields over the value chain is too strong for that to happen.
