Lars: ...No one except QCommies wants for QCOM to control the whole industry - ASICs, IPR and software - if they can help it... Of course we "QCommies" do, we're QCOM shareholders and we want QCOM to rule the wireless world, same way Nokia would like to control over 50% of the handset market. <g> As for "ruling the industry", your comment reminded of a line from the analysis of QCOM's patent position I posted a few days ago: Message 17396027 ...Qualcomm's subsequent patents build off of the earlier patents in a way that has helped the company secure the entire CDMA system....And more importantly, the patents analyzed involve far-reaching, fundamental elements of narrow and wideband CDMA technology. (Heh heh heh!!) With levity, David T.
