Yes...Ericssons patent position was much stronger than we were led to believe? Royalties There has been some confusion regarding Qualcomm's royalty revenue due to the announced agreement with Ericsson. For IS-95, there has been no change in Qualcomm's royalty receipts. Ericsson will pay Qualcomm a royalty to manufacture IS-95 CDMA handsets. Further, the future royalty stream into Qualcomm is the same, regardless of whether the technology being deployed is WCDMA, CDMA2000 etc. At some point in the future, Qualcomm will pay Ericsson a small royalty for their patents in WCDMA. We believe this royalty will be paid when Qualcomm manufacturers multi-mode handsets for3G. From the BTAB report: Message 8640684
