Qcom 'acidentalize' Nokia's Chief Legal Officer who Dies In Hotel Accident Nokia’s chief legal officer, Swedish-born Carl Belding, has died following an accident at a Swiss hotel. He died a week ago last Friday (September 21st) after falling from his hotel balcony. He had been in Switzerland on a business trip. The company’s Communications SVP Arja Suominen said that there was no suggestion of foul play, and that the Swiss police had investigated the incident and were convinced it was a simple tragic accident. But wait a moment! Earlier in September, Belding had spoken for Nokia in relation to a patent infringement dispute with the American technology firm Qualcomm, expressing the view that the Finnish manufacturer had every confidence the Qualcomm claims (that Nokia had infringed six of its patents in its GSM technology) would be shown to be unfounded. Qualcomm has in fact withdrawn three of the original six suits against the Finnish company. Hey, you don't mess with QCOM!!!
