The reward for having faith in a young company called QUALCOMM in the early nineties was immeasurably rewarded.Yes there was the montary gains that some of us made based on our belief,CDMA technology that QUALCOMM had pioneered for terrestrial digital cellular use, would not only work, but take the world by storm. Despite the bombardment of lies and accusations by the GSM cartel,communicated by agents disguised as journalist and a Standford professor calling QUALCOMM a fraud and the CDMA Mafia.Oh Yes there was the infamous Black Box article by Barons, but QUALCOMM prevailed due to the strength of its engineering marvels made possible by the very long hours and dedication by people like Engineer.Some of us without an engineering back ground like myself, my profession being Anesthesiology caught on to this amazing technology by chance and conversation.The dream of a digital cellular world that would be so efficient as to allow a quantum leap in allowable conversations on a single channel was proven and the rest is history. QUALCOMM now on the verge of global market domination due to years of hard work laying the bullet proof patented foundations for CDMA and I mean bullet poof ,is now being tested by the same old foes and one new comer in the legal arena all due to the GSM cartel loosing there legacy technology. Nokia and Broadcom and a few others has been gearing up for there ambush working hard trying to hook its U-Haul pathetic trailer loaded with junk including a lot of there own attempted CDMA chips which never worked onto the CDMA locomotive and declaring they are now in charge of the CDMA world and will dictate terms.Will all of this be recognized as the conspiracy that it is? will we see justice in all of this?If history is correct we will see Nokia fall the way Ericsson fell in 1999 .Rewards will come again to the faithful as they did when WCMA was licensed by Ericsson in 1999 after once proclaiming CDMA did not work, and QUALCOMM did not own the WCDMA technology.They paid a lot to realize there mistake and so will Nokia unless they see there current course is only leading them to needless expense and possible huge market losses. Bottom line:Nokia pay up now or pay much bigger later. I can wait and I will wait.In the mean time I will take a ride to the Wireless Valley nearby where QUALCOMM has been building lots of new shiney buildings and see if I can guess which one Nokia will lease or buy from QUALCOMM as part of the deal.They will need a building near by as did Eriksson in 1999 to try to catch up to all the lossed business taken by the Pacific Rim CDMA manufactures licensed by QUALCOMM.

BTW - It was Siemens who screwed my buddy with the Water filter company. Just violated his patents and said "go ahead, litigate all you want". After about $50M in company money, he was outlawyered and decided to give up.

This happens all too often. About time someone stood up and fought the good fight.
