Broadcom says offered Verizon deal to others
Thu Jul 19, 2007 5:33PM EDT
NEW YORK, July 19 (Reuters) - Broadcom Corp. (BRCM.O: Quote, Profile, Research) said on Thursday it offered the same deal that it agreed with Verizon Wireless to other businesses in the industry.


Broadcom tried blackmailing the other companies and so far they refused to buckle. What does that say about the chances for a stay or veto. Can all those other companies be out of the loop in measuring the temp for a stay or veto?

If they offered this deal to other operators in the industry, why would QCOM need a license at all from BRCM. All new QCOM chips would be allowed in the country via the individual agreements with the operators. Circumventing the only remedy provided by the ITC. BRCM would still be without a WCDMA license and unable to compete. I'm confused....
