<<How do you have a work-around within a CDMA standard? I have always thought of the original work-around as using some other technology to achieve similar results. A WIMAX/GSM phone might be considered a work-around capability wise but how do you continue to make WCDMA phones and say you have worked around anything?>>

I thought Nokia wants to wait until 2008 just to let some of Qualcomm's most essential CDMA patents expire. In two years time there is less to work-around for Nokia, and also the FRANDliness of royalty terms can be reassessed.

But then again, I ain't no lawyer, I ain't no engineer, so WTFDIK!
