"Cave-in" is probably not the right word, I would suggest it was "compromise" in the interest of the industry as a whole. It is interesting to speculate what would have happened if IMJ stood tall and said it was CDMA2000 or nothing, yet here we are 8 years latter being held legal hostage by the POS. Unfortunately, playing fair 8 years ago didn't workout so well, so now it is time to play hardball. SpinCo is a good first step.
