“It's like a big chess game,” said attorney John Gartman, a San Diego trial lawyer at Fish & Richardson who has represented Microsoft in intellectual property litigation. “You just have to think three moves ahead.” With this thought in mind, the current arbitration filing is quite interesting. Did Nokia anticipate that Qualcomm would seek arbitration when they paid the $20 M, and thus "set up Qualcomm"?, or did Qualcomm "surprise" by filing for arbitration, and thus take the advantage? Any way you look at it, the stakes are high on the arbitration! Gene

LOL! A CFO with a sense of humor. Would love to see if he could repeat his quote below with a straight face. <“You don't hear me or others here using terms like 'Armageddon,'” Simonson said. “We're somewhat boring when it comes to the press. We are not prone to hyperbole. We try to stick with the facts. We are the leader in the industry, and one that has done more than anybody to foster the innovation and growth that has happened in the mobile industry. That's why this is a little bit more of a story of not Qualcomm vs. Nokia, but more like Qualcomm vs. the whole industry.”>
