In general, they felt it had to do with the way Qualcomm played (or refused to play) the open standards game, what was going on behind the scenes between the US and the EC, and the stance on the 5 principles that Qualcomm took in 1998.

Thank goodness Qualcomm was smart enough not to give away their IPR in the so called "WCDMA IPR Pool", what a joke that was.

In other words, if Qualcomm didn;t give the Europeans their IPR for free, which was one of hte 5 items, then VOd would not play ball. Sounds pretty one way to me. Very glad that Q refused.
