Agree slacker and that senario (possible pending non renewals) is a definite posibility when taking on an additional investment with IDCC. Some will not accept the Apple agreement saying there's more to the agreement, such as a volume kicker or no LTE patent coverage.

I believe it is what it is and Apple snuckered IDCC for the promotional benefit IDCC thought they had with listing Apple as a licencee, when in reality, I believe the Apple license has had a detrimental effect in licensing the other major companies.

Just because Merritt says he's happy with the Apple deal doesn't make it a good deal as what does one believe Merritt would say? "Dang!!, I really botched this one, big time." mo.. nic
