Briefing.com just repeated the Bloomberg "worst case scenario" piece. If the EC, after years of litigation, were to find against Qualcomm and fine them the maximum, wouldn`t their jurisdiction be limited to European profits from IPR? We could lose more market cap today than that.

I've written to Mr Newman and copied the SEC. (see link). It's all probably pointless, but my Mother taught me to speak up when somebody does something to hurt you. Anybody else on this board interested in venting using your keyboard? I'd also welcome some other e-mail addresses inside of Bloomberg, Spitzer's office or the SEC (or maybe Big Lou from Brooklyn) or for that matter anybody who would listen. If for no other reason than it might cause Mr Newman to practice more objective journalism. Yeah I'm pissed. Sorry for the rant.

JGoren, how would the EC have jurisdiction to now effectively renegotiate the complex settlement agreement/cross-license that Ericsson and Qualcomm negotiated in the context of U.S. based litigation in 1999?

>>Timing is too incredible.<<

I remember one of my posts a couple of months ago was a show of faith the Euro process was on the up and up, but it's all too apparent they waited for months until the most opportune time for the POS to release this news. Those poor bastards. The real farce is that this is all about an investigation of abuse of power.

Looks like the cabal has it's war room operating to negate the effect of the Broadcomm injunction. Timing is too incredible.

On its face, I basically agree. The presumption is that this "leak" was timing sensitive.

IMHO, any prudent investor or legal strategist should always question the timing to any news release, development or statement. Sometimes the answer might be incidental; other times it might be intentional. Nevertheless, such questioning can provide insight that can assist in the investment decision or legal strategy at-hand.
