Eric.. "It appears that Nokia may have -- or will have -- a paid up license to some or all of those patents that were challenged in Europe, Korea, and Japan, and this accounts for the "in part" language pertaining to license agreement expiration in QUALCOMM's most recent 10K filing with the SEC" And just how would you know the particulars of the existing license agreements Eric? Have you actually seen the actual license agreement between QCOM and NOK that states that after 15 years NOK gets a free ride on these patents? I think not. I also do not think that it is even plausible that QCOM would put a "free ride" clause in any license agreement made with any of it's customers. So show us the language in the contract that supports NOK's position Eric.
