A bit of background:

Sticking to the Q where I tried for a long time on Mike Buckley's Gorilla Game thread on AOL to stimulate some discussion of wireless, CDMA and Qualcomm, and suggested after the Ericy/Q agreement that folks there consider the Q again, the only person who jumped in (here BTW) was Mike Buckley himself.

I was unaware of this very valuable - and I thought compatico thread - then.

I learned about this tread on the SI Q thread from Uncle Frank's post there asking for comments here from Q'ers there.

Ironically, the Chaz Mike Buckly referred to in his first posts on the Q here - inviting me over so to speak - was me, GDICHAZ, not the Chaz who has been a valuable contributer to this thread for a long time. I therefore joined as Chaz too.

Hope this is helpful as to why I am here.

Chaz too

John,

Thanks for the article about InterDigital, a company I'm not familiar with.

what do you know about so called 3G wireless?

Not much, because all of this stuff is beyond my ability to comprehend technology. What I do know is the very general stuff. The cell-based networks are currently using second-generation technology. 3G refers to the third-generation technologies.

If this is in the near future does it cause concern for qcom.

Eberything I've read indicataes that CDMA is at the very core of 3G technology. Does that sufficiently answer your question? :)
