limtex ... Actually I wonder why the owners of the StarTrek copyright don't sue Motorola especially when you consider the name "StarTac".

I read in Forbes (a while ago) that Paramount (owner of all Star Trek rights) is investigating all legal options with regard to Motorola's use of the name StarTac.

I am sure Qualcomm is aware of this, because I personally pointed out the Forbes article to someone at Qualcomm, just in case no one there (at QCOM) knew about it.

Jon.

limtex:

If MOT was to acquire QCOM, there is that sticky business invoving Globalstar and Iridium. Quite the conflict there.
