Leland,

How would Ericsson's claim be affected if Qualcomm walked into court and showed patents pertaining to some wireline teletype routing system where messages were subsequently routed according to capacity in some branch of the system. This routing decision being accomplished by querying stations at a particular node. And get this.... the stations share the wireline on a time-sharing basis!! TDMA in wire!!

Leland,

Excuse the confusion created with my usage of scope, but it was meant in context of what was obvious and non-obvious. The soft-handoff concept may be obvious. The technique for implementing it may not be obvious and be very unique. In my opinion, the novelty issue is essential to the validity of the specific claims, and what defines a substantial difference.

If you ask for it, legal counsel can take you on a long (hag)fishing expedition.

Cheers,
Greg B.
