Clark,
I don't intend to make this Nokia thread a battle ground over QCOM's IPR issues. I do know the difference between mobile and fixed is a very very big one and also that they have been saying for years that B-CDMA will become mobile. Just maybe Nokia might be the one who will provide the missing factor ?

Should it ever be accomplished I don't believe myself or you are qualified to state whether it will or will not contain some of the Q's IPR . I will let that matter resolve itself.

Tero said "This B-CDMA seems to be the Korean revenge on Qualcomm. They can't wiggle out of the IS-95 IPR payments... but they can attempt a Hail Mary run to outflank Qualcomm with B-CDMA. I think it's really interesting that Nokia is now showing support. "

I too think it's interesting that Nokia is now showing support and hope Tero can get some information from his cab driver buddy of what this new relationship may afford in the future.
