Do you think this mandate will have any significant effects on Qualcomm's business during the next couple years. I imagine that such license agreements don't need periodic renewal, so I would guess that the matter may bee mott but don't know.

I have never heard of this...but since Qualcomm gives very little information about it's license agreements it could be true. The moment those licenses were to lapse (theoretically), Qualcomm would be filing an injunction against CDMA shipments by those companies. This would be a pretty good way to throw the Korean economy into a quick tailspin.

If Korea wanted a lower domestic rate, they should have been negotiating prior to comitting to W-CDMA in the new spectrum. They had leverage back then....
