We need to talk about Huawei's (alleged) thefts:

https://www.engadget.com/2019/02/20/we-need-to-talk-about-huawei/

"This week, The Information published a report claiming Huawei has been attempting to appropriate all of Apple's trade secrets. Employees were apparently instructed to do deals with Apple's component suppliers in the hope of learning its secrets. In one instance, a company that makes the coveted optical heart-rate sensor for the Apple Watch was targeted.

Last month, the Financial Times said Huawei "ran a bonus scheme" to encourage workers to steal rival companies' technology. Then there was the Bloomberg report detailing an FBI sting over a US startup's super-tough glass that, it's alleged, Huawei tried to reverse engineer. Not to mention the noise about Huawei's bungled attempts to steal T-Mobile's phone-testing robot.

There are also the stories of Huawei stealing the work of designers and artists to run inside its advertising campaigns. In 2018, DesignTaxi reported that the company had appropriated the animations of Paul McMahon as background to its launch event. Similarly, but more bizarrely, designer Victoria Balva accused the company of hijacking one of her designs for a glass dome to be put up in its new HQ building.

Politically, Huawei has not been welcome in the US for some time, as officials were wary about the company's close relations with government. In early 2018, FBI director Chris Wray expressed concern about allowing Huawei to build American mobile networks. He said that to permit it to provide infrastructure would give it the "capacity to conduct undetected espionage."

It's not just the US keeping Huawei at arm's length or treating its claims with a level of skepticism. Australia, New Zealand and Poland have all issued official or de facto bans, and other countries, like Germany and the UK, are monitoring the company closely. In Huawei's defense, the company has maintained its innocence, and there are geopolitical tensions in play as well. Not to mention that founder Ren Zhengfei has pledged that his company does not, and will not, engage in spying."

Huawei and China, Facing U.S. Charges, Have Few Ways to Retaliate:

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/29/technology/huawei-indictment-criminal-charges.html

By Paul Mozur and Raymond Zhong
Jan. 29, 2019

SHANGHAI — Ever since Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer at the Chinese technology giant Huawei, was arrested in Canada nearly two months ago, Chinese officials have denounced the move as “wrongful” and “arbitrary” — a political affair cloaked in a judicial one.

Now that the United States has laid out its case against Ms. Meng in greater detail, neither Huawei nor the Chinese government has easy options for responding or retaliating.

Huawei, the world’s largest provider of the equipment that powers mobile phone and data networks, said on Tuesday that it was innocent of charges unveiled in Washington the day before that it had misled the United States government about its business in Iran, obstructed a criminal investigation and stolen American industrial secrets.

China’s Foreign Ministry called again for the United States and Canada to release Ms. Meng, who is a daughter of Huawei’s founder and chief executive, Ren Zhengfei.

The file she was carrying, which the indictment said may have been deleted before being discovered, contained “suggested talking points” about Huawei’s relationship with Skycom, the company that prosecutors accuse Huawei of using as an unofficial subsidiary to obtain American-sourced goods, technology and services for its Iranian business.

The indictment also said Skycom employed at least one United States citizen in Iran, a violation of American law. And it said that after Huawei found out that the United States was pursuing a criminal investigation in 2017, the company destroyed evidence and tried to move unspecified witnesses who knew about its Iranian business to China, beyond the reach of the American government.

The other indictment, which concerns the theft of trade secrets from the American wireless provider T-Mobile, refers to internal emails describing a plot to steal testing equipment from T-Mobile’s lab in Bellevue, Wash.

Huawei has contended that its employees were acting on their own to learn more about a robot that T-Mobile used to test smartphones, nicknamed Tappy because it could rapidly tap a phone screen. But the indictment cites multiple emails exchanged between Huawei engineers urging those with access to Tappy to take increasingly precise measurements.

Broadcom cuts Qualcomm offer to $117 billion after new NXP deal:

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-qualcomm-m-a-broadcom/broadcom-cuts-qualcomm-offer-to-117-billion-after-new-nxp-deal-idUSKCN1G51M3

Qualcomm responded that Broadcom had made“an inadequate offer even worse,” setting up a showdown on March 6, when Qualcomm shareholders are scheduled to elect an 11-member board and decide whether to hand control to a slate of six nominees put forward by Broadcom.

A tie-up between Broadcom and Qualcomm would be the biggest technology acquisition ever. The takeover battle is at the heart of a race to consolidate the wireless technology equipment sector, as smartphone makers such as Apple Inc (AAPL.O) and Samsung Electronics Co Ltd (005930.KS) use their market dominance to negotiate lower chip prices.

Broadcom said that Qualcomm’s raised bid would amount to overpaying for NXP and cut its own bid as a result.

InterDigital Makes Binding Offer to Acquire Technicolor’s Patent Licensing Business, Will Collaborate With Technicolor on Video Research:

http://ir.interdigital.com/file/Index?KeyFile=392406162

WILMINGTON, Del., March 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), a mobile technology research and development company, today announced that it has made a binding offer to purchase the patent licensing business of Technicolor (Euronext Paris:TCH) (OTCQX:TCLRY), a worldwide technology leader in the media and entertainment sector, for $150 million in cash plus future contingent consideration. The combination of InterDigital’s and Technicolor’s licensing businesses in the increasingly complementary areas of mobile technology and video technology will create a world-leading R&D-based licensing enterprise.

In order to accommodate French labor law, InterDigital has made an irrevocable offer to Technicolor and certain of its subsidiaries to purchase Technicolor’s patent licensing business. After completing the required prior consultation with Technicolor’s works council, the companies expect to execute a definitive acquisition agreement, the terms of which have been negotiated. The transaction is expected to close in mid-2018, subject to conditions relating to consent of Technicolor’s partners, customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

The transaction would dramatically expand InterDigital’s technology footprint in mobile devices, and also provide a platform for InterDigital to address new markets in home consumer electronic devices, including set-top boxes, displays and video streaming devices. While the current contracted revenue of the acquired business from Technicolor is much lower than its historical levels, InterDigital believes there is substantial unlocked licensing value in the Technicolor portfolio. The company also expects the net impact of the transaction on its core operating expenses to be modest. Consequently, the company expects the transaction to drive significant shareholder value, through the deployment of the acquired assets into both current license discussions and new license discussions in additional markets.

Commenting on the transaction, Frederic Rose, Technicolor’s CEO stated: “This agreement would provide us with additional resources to be more focused on strengthening our position in our core operating businesses and includes a collaborative research program that would further fuel the competitive advantage of operating activities. In InterDigital, I am convinced that we have found the right partner for our patent licensing business. As a focused, R&D-backed licensing business with a strong industry reputation, InterDigital is well positioned to unlock the potential of our strong intellectual property and innovation.”

William J. Merritt, President and CEO of InterDigital, added: “Technicolor has long been a world-leading research contributor in key technology areas; there is no one like them in video technologies. For InterDigital’s mobile device customers, the combination will mean greater value, and a broader range of technologies that can form the basis for partnership, collaboration, and deeper, more productive relationships. The transaction also rapidly expands our addressable markets. Among the added value will be the combined research capability of Technicolor and InterDigital, who deeply respect each other’s research capabilities and anticipate strong results from the collaboration between the two companies.”

Transaction Highlights

InterDigital will acquire Technicolor’s portfolio of more than 21,000 patents and applications across a broad range of technologies, including over 2,500 worldwide video coding patents, which will complement InterDigital’s existing portfolio of approximately 19,000 patent assets in wireless, video, and other technologies.
InterDigital will deploy the acquired assets into its existing mobile industry licensing efforts, and extend its licensing program to new activities in the consumer electronics field.
InterDigital will assume Technicolor’s role as the exclusive licensing agent for the joint licensing program with Sony related to display technology.
Technicolor’s global team of licensing experts, patent managers and support staff will join InterDigital and work with its existing licensing team to license the expanded patent portfolio.
InterDigital will pay Technicolor $150 million in cash up front. Technicolor will also receive 42.5% of all future cash receipts (net of estimated operating expenses) from InterDigital’s new licensing efforts in the consumer electronics field. There is no revenue sharing associated with InterDigital’s mobile industry licensing efforts.
As part of this transaction, InterDigital would also grant back to Technicolor a perpetual license for patents acquired in the transaction.
Research and Development Cooperation

InterDigital and Technicolor will also engage in jointly-funded R&D to supplement InterDigital’s portfolio, which the companies plan to evolve and strengthen over time. The R&D collaboration will bring together the efforts of hundreds of engineers in InterDigital Labs and Technicolor Research and Innovation (R&I), and will leverage Technicolor’s recognized leadership in video, media and entertainment, and InterDigital’s recognized leadership in mobile, IoT and video. InterDigital will own the patents related to the joint research, and Technicolor will receive a license back to the assets resulting from the targeted research conducted by R&I.

Evercore is serving as financial advisor, and Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati and Jeantet are serving as legal counsel to InterDigital. Macquarie Group is serving as financial advisor, and Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP is serving as legal counsel to Technicolor.

Broadcom lines up as much as $100 billion in debt funding in bid for Qualcomm:

10:29 pm ET February 11, 2018 (MarketWatch)
By Dana Cimilluca

Commitments would fully fund $60-a-share cash portion of bid

Broadcom Ltd. secured as much as $100 billion of debt financing for its hostile bid for Qualcomm Inc. and enlisted two more big private-equity firms, strengthening the chip giant's hand in the takeover battle.

A dozen banks -- including Bank of America Corp. (BAC) , Citigroup Inc. (C) , Deutsche Bank AG (DBK.XE) , JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) and Morgan (MS) have agreed to provide up to $100 billion of committed credit facilities, including a $5 billion revolver and bridge financing, according to people familiar with the matter.

Private-equity firms KKR & Co. and CVC Capital Partners agreed to join Silver Lake in providing $6 billion in convertible debt for the deal and postclosing working-capital needs, the people said.

Broadcom (AVGO) has been in pursuit of Qualcomm (QCOM) since November and has nominated a slate of directors that would be voted on at a meeting in early March. Broadcom a week ago raised its bid to $82 a share in cash and stock, or more than $120 billion. The commitments would enable Broadcom to fully fund the $60 a share cash portion of the bid.

Qualcomm rejects Broadcom's $121 billion bid:

https://www.yahoo.com/tech/qualcomm-rejects-broadcom-apos-121-230416572.html

The largest tech acquisition offer in history wasn't enough.

Qualcomm's board of directors issued a statement on Thursday saying that they are turning down Broadcom's $121 billion bid to buy the competing chipmaker.

According to the release, Qualcomm "unanimously rejected" an "unsolicited proposal" to buy all of its shares at $82 each, of which $60 would be cash and $22 stock. Broadcom made the revised offer on Monday, up from the previously proposed deal price of $70 per share.

Qualcomm says that it is still undervalued at $121 billion. The board wrote a letter to Broadcom, stating it is worth more, specifically because "your proposal ascribes no value to our accretive NXP acquisition, no value for the expected resolution of our current licensing disputes and no value for the significant opportunity in 5G. Your proposal is inferior relative to our prospects as an independent company and is significantly below both trading and transaction multiples in our sector."

In other words, Qualcomm thinks it can eventually be worth more on the stock market than $121 billion. Boards of public companies have a fiduciary duty to consider shareholders, so Qualcomm needed to justify why it was turning this down.

This is partly because it doesn't think Broadcom is appreciating the value gathered from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of NXP Semiconductor. It also believes that Broadcom is underestimating Qualcomm's ability to excel at making 5G wireless technology, which it hopes will be instrumental to IoT, short for "Internet of Things." This could help connect internet in cars, homes and wearable devices.

It presently has a market cap of $92 billion, despite months of deal talks. This implies that the stock market doesn't think it will end up selling for its desired price in the near future.

Qualcomm shareholders will be voting on March 6th whether to replace its board with Broadcom's nominees.

Even if Qualcomm were to approve the deal, it's also not clear if it will actually go through. Regulators may decide that it would have too much power over the smartphone chip market.

Qualcomm already works on both Apple and Samsung phones. It also works with a handful of Chinese competitors. This was the basis for a recent lawsuit.

Qualcomm's shares recently fell on reports that Apple could start working with Intel instead. Intel's stock has not traded up this week, however.

The EU recently fined Qualcomm $1.2 billion because of an exclusivity deal with Apple that it felt was unfair.

InterDigital Announces Successful Demonstration of 5G Ready mmW Wireless Crosshaul Transport:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/interdigital-announces-successful-demonstration-5g-083000201.html

WILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InterDigital, Inc. (IDCC), a mobile technology research and development company, today announced the successful trial and evaluation of the company’s millimeter wave (mmW) EdgeLink™ 60GHz solution and Fast-Forward 70GHz solution that meets new 5G transport requirements as defined by the various 5G standardization groups in 3GPP, ETSI, IEEE, and eCPRI. The solution proved the feasibility of 5G fronthaul upper-layer and lower-layer transport over wireless.

The successful trial was a key part of a larger two-month trial integrating technology innovations from six partners in the H2020 5G-Crosshaul consortium, InterDigital, Ericsson, Nokia, UC3M, NEC and CND. The trial started in November 2017 and was conducted in Madrid (Spain) at 5TONIC, an open research and innovation lab focusing on 5G technologies. The 5G-Crosshaul consortium, over the three years 2015-2017, has developed a novel 5G integrated fronthaul/backhaul transport solution, named 5G-Crosshaul, that enables flexible transport reconfiguration via Software Defined Networking (SDN) in a multi-tenant, multi-domain environment, while meeting 5G’s stringent service requirements.

InterDigital’s EdgeLink 60GHz solution and Fast-Forward 70GHz solution served as the mmW wireless Crosshaul transport solution for the 5G fronthaul upper layer and lower layer split options, as well as for backhaul for a small cell. InterDigital’ s Fast-Forward solution proved that it can meet the stringent latency requirements of under 250 usec for the MAC-PHY lower layer split. In addition, backhaul and PDCP/RLC upper layer fronthaul were successfully transported simultaneously over a single high-capacity mmW EdgeLink connection.

“We are pleased with the successful conclusion of this 2 month trial marking the end of 3 years of close collaboration among 20 partners in the 5G-Crosshaul consortium. This is a crucial step towards further trials scheduled in 2018 and 2019, including 5G-Crosshaul alongside 5G New Radio and 5G Core Network, paving the way for the commercial deployment of 5G networks,” said Alan Carlton, Vice President, InterDigital Europe.

5G-Crosshaul is an international project with 20 members aimed at developing integrated fronthaul and backhaul system solutions to support flexibility and unified management for 5G network architectures. To learn more about the project, visit http://5g-crosshaul.eu/.

Hillcrest Labs Announces Enhanced Sensor Node With Best-In-Class Motion Tracking for Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and 3D Audio Devices:

http://ir.interdigital.com/file/Index?KeyFile=391427709

ROCKVILLE, Md., Dec. 12, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hillcrest Labs, a subsidiary of InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), today announced the latest expansion of its sensor node product line. The BNO085, a 9-Axis System in Package (SiP), features an enhanced sensor fusion algorithm tuned specifically for use in virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and 3D audio applications. VR systems that use BNO085 benefit from more accurate alignment between the controllers and headset even when the controllers are outside the field of view of the systems’ camera(s).

The BNO085 includes all the same features of its predecessor, the BNO080, which is used today in a wide variety of VR, AR, 3D audio, robotics and IoT devices. It combines Hillcrest Labs’ high-performance, proprietary MotionEngine™ sensor processing software with an accelerometer, magnetometer, gyroscope, and a low-power 32-bit ARM Cortex M0+ MCU in a single package. The BNO085 provides exceptional sensor fusion, activity tracking and application-specific features to enable an exciting array of sensor-based consumer and industrial products.

The enhancements in the BNO085 were designed to deliver precise motion tracking for VR controllers in both inside-out and outside-in systems and superior head tracking performance for VR, AR and 3D audio headsets. The BNO085 enhancements designed for VR systems include:

Improved motion tracking with both inside-out and outside-in camera systems;
Significantly reduced heading error to keep controllers aligned with the headset;
Tight synchronization between controllers in dual controller systems; and
Stabilized orientation output that tracks the rotational motion of one or more controllers, even when outside the camera’s field of view.
The BNO085 features low-power consumption and a compact size while still providing the low-latency, 1KHz sample rate, smooth orientation output, and accurate activity tracking features present in the previous generation. Developers and integrators benefit through faster time-to-market, reductions in development time, reduced BOM cost, and the highest precision and quality. 3Glasses and ANTVR, two renowned brands in VR, are already using Hillcrest Labs’ BNO085 to deliver superior performance to their customers.

“The BNO085’s fused data resulted in superior accuracy when used in our VR controllers. Jumps in heading were virtually eliminated leading to much better performance,” said Shaojun Dang, CTO, 3Glasses. “The enhancements provided by the Hillcrest Labs’ team ultimately resulted in the successful certification of our S1 product as an approved Windows 10 Mixed Reality device.”

“Our first-generation VR systems faced challenges in keeping the two motion controllers aligned with each other during game play,” said Qin Zheng, founder and CEO, ANTVR. “Hillcrest Labs’ new BNO085 solution dramatically improves the performance of our system, which results in a superior user experience that leaves our customers more satisfied with ANTVR’s product.”

The BNO085 is available for production orders and immediate sampling along with documentation and evaluation tools. For more information about the BNO085, including pricing, and Hillcrest’s broad portfolio of sensor processing products, visit: www.hillcrestlabs.com

Nvidia Signs Massive Deal With China's Kingpins:

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4110210-nvidia-signs-massive-deal-chinas-kingpins?ifp=0

The Narrative that is Building
On 7-24-2017 we penned It’s Happening: The Opportunity in Artificial Intelligence.

In that dossier we discuss the forecasts from IDC and SunTrust which put the total addressable market at $12.5 billion in 2017 and a 54.4% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) through 2020, leading to a $46 billion industry in a matter of less than four years. SunTrust sees the market at just over $47 billion.

On July 4th we penned a massive update coming from China’s Ministry of Industry that focused on an explicit plan from Mainland China where it is expected to see total investments on 5G mobile networks reach 2.8 trillion yuan (US$411 billion) in the period from 2020 to 2030.

Those numbers we released by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, the research arm of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT).

Within those dossiers we focused on Nvidia’s role in powering cloud platforms with a focus on machine learned and of course the use of its GPUs in artificial intelligence.

Recent notes from Wall Street have poured some cold water on the fiery stock, noting that the company won’t be able to capture full market share — of course competition, at some level, must exist.

But, an announcement from China’s mega 3 technology companies has risen the bar yet again for Nvidia.

China's Mega Technology Companies
Barron’s reported on September 26th that Nvidia has struck a deal where it will provide AI graphic processing chips to the three Chinese tech titans; Alibaba (NASDAQ:BABA), Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU), and Tencent.

5G: The Next Tech Disruption In Media And Entertainment Is Coming:

Content innovation:

"5G will impact media consumption thanks to significant technical improvements in transmission speed, quality, and reliability, which will drive innovation in content.

Transmission Speed: Download speeds are bound to increase at least tenfold compared to 4G, and for true 5G standards, it could be up to 100-fold. So if an HD movie takes six minutes to download in a 4G network, with 5G it could take a handful of seconds. Also, in the era of user-generated content, photo and video upload speeds will improve, fueling social media content.

5G promises to enable close to zero latency between a streaming source and the viewer (from tens of milliseconds to less than three). The effect was well put by Juan C. Archila, Executive Vice-President of International Relations at America Movil, a global mobile network operator present in 26 countries and No. 340 in Forbes Global 2000 List: "With 5G, negligible latency will bring a new era of professional live-streaming of sports and other live events. User-generated live streams will also proliferate, although new challenges will emerge to limit violent or inappropriate content."

A 4G culture taught us to be impatient. We are willing to sacrifice quality in order to avoid waiting. That is, we are ok with a half-quality stream as long as we get our content fix, uninterrupted. With 5G, there will be less of a trade-off between quality and speed. You will be able to get HD quality video on a fast, reliable stream, with little buffering.

These dramatic improvements in speed, quality, and reliability during media consumption will lead to radical innovations in premium content, such as dedicated virtual reality sports channels and multi-player mobile games. Chris McCann from Verizon's Corporate Communications, states: "We see the distribution of high-resolution digital content and media as a tremendous opportunity for the technology."

Apple's Dividend Potential Is Almost Unbelievable:

"At any rate, Apple’s dividend is now up to a forward rate cresting $2.50. But as I said, the huge rally we’ve seen this year has pushed the yield down to 1.7%. That is hardly income stock territory but it doesn’t have to be like that, as we shall see in a moment."

Comcast might have to pay TiVo after losing a patent dispute:

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/comcast-might-pay-tivo-losing-080400159.html

"Comcast may be feeling a twinge of regret for hyping its X1 set-top boxes to the Moon and back. TiVo has won an International Trade Commission dispute accusing Comcast and its hardware partners (Arris and Technicolor) of violating patents through the X1 platform's approach to DVR recording and search. The case had originally covered six patents, but this still means Comcast could be on the hook for licensing fees if it wants to avoid a sales ban.

It won't be surprising if Comcast does what it can to contest the ITC ruling, and to some extent it already has: it counter-sued TiVo in 2016, accusing the company of breaching its contract by filing a matching civil lawsuit in Texas (a state that's often friendly to patent cases) instead of New York.

The verdict may seem speedy given that the dispute began in spring 2016 (shortly before Rovi bought TiVo), but the outcome isn't totally surprising. Neither Rovi nor TiVo were strangers to patent fights before they tied the knot, and both of them know that the ITC tends to produce results far sooner than conventional courtroom battles. If anything, the surprise is simply that it isn't a clean-cut victory. TiVo was no doubt hoping that all its patent challenges would have survived scrutiny, giving it more leverage over Comcast when pushing for a settlement."

Latest UOIP Litigation update today:


IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE
IN RE CHANBOND, LLC ) C.A. No. 15-842 (RGA) PATENT LITIGATION ) CONSOLIDATED STIPULATION & [PROPOSED] ORDER FOR EXTENSION OF TIME IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by and between the parties, and subject to the approval of the Court, that the time for the parties to submit a joint status report and proposed revised schedule (see D.I. 109) is extended until June 15, 2017.


Quote:
Consolidated Stipulation = An agreement between attorneys that concerns business before a court and is designed to simplify or shorten litigation and save costs. During the course of a civil lawsuit, criminal proceeding, or any other type of litigation, the opposing attorneys may come to an agreement about certain facts and issues. Such an agreement is called a stipulation. Courts look with favor on stipulations because they save time and simplify the matters that must be resolved. Stipulations are voluntary, however, and courts may not require litigants to stipulate with the other side. A valid stipulation is binding only on the parties who agree to it. Courts are usually bound by valid stipulations and are required to enforce them.


Note:
I think there might have been an offer made.

Huawei will leapfrog Apple and HP to lead the PC market in five years, top exec says:

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/huawei-leapfrog-apple-hp-lead-041541311.html

"HP, Lenovo, Dell, Apple, and Acer make up the top five players in the world by market share, IDC said. So if Huawei becomes number one, that would mean beating out those top players. Wan, however, said he's confident.

"Of course, we are confident because of Huawei's powerful innovation capabilities. In fact, in the laptop space some technologies are the same with smartphone. In the meantime, with the development of AI, AR and VR [artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality] technologies, the chance to succeed will only grow bigger for a strong innovative company," Wan told CNBC.

Huawei's consumer business is relatively young and began with smartphones. The Chinese giant is seeing success: reported revenues in its consumer business group were up 42 percent year-on-year in 2016 to 178 billion yuan ($26.19 billion). Smartphone shipments were up 29 percent to 139 million units, and Huawei is now the third-largest smartphone vendor in the world by market share."

Apple's iOS 11 is 'smarter' and more powerful than ever:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/apples-ios-11-smarter-powerful-ever-003607865.html

"As a longtime iPhone user, one of my biggest pet peeves with iOS has been the simple able to drag and drop items — photos, documents, anything — the same way I could on my Mac. It’s a feature computer users have taken for granted for decades, but one that was mystifyingly absent on Apple’s mobile platform.

IOS 11 finally remedies that with the ability to drag and drop as you like. It doesn’t work exactly like it does on a Mac, though. Dragging and dropping several photos, for instance, means tapping and holding your finger on one image while tapping the other images, then swiping up at the bottom of the iPad’s screen to bring up the dock, then dragging those images over to the app.

It’ll take you a few minutes to remember the process, to be sure, and the process still doesn’t feel as intuitive as dragging and dropping on a Mac, but it gets the job done.

A file system

Apple is finally bringing the concept of the File System to iOS, and it’s about time. Previously, if iOS users wanted to access different files, they had to go to different apps: Photos for photos, Voice Memos for audio recordings and so on. With the new File System app, you can pretty much access anything you want in one fell swoop, regardless of whether they’re stored on your iCloud drive, Dropbox account or even Google Drive. If it’s hooked up to your phone, you can access it."

MAJOR VICTORIES FOR UOIP/CHANBOND against the Cable Companies!

The Patent Board just ruled in UOIP/CHANBOND's favor over RPX (the cable companies.) This follows their recent win over CISCO!

The court documents listed below show that the neither Cisco or RPX could discredit UOIP's patents.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? In 2015 UOIP/Chanbond filed a lawsuit against the 13 major Cable companies for patent infringement. The cable companies through RPX and Cisco then challenged UOIP's patents with the Patent Board (PTAB). The PTAB not only ruled in UOIP's favor but from reading the documents it looks like CISCO and RPX both were grasping at straws.

These wins are admissible in court! They Cable companies have lost their petitions. If they continue with the court case and lose which is likely given these wins with the PTAB they will lose all leverage in negotiating with UOIP.

A settlement now is the most logical answer!

COURT DOCUMENT Showing win over RPX on 5/25/17

III. CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, we determine that RPX has not shown by a
preponderance of the evidence that claims 1–31 are unpatentable.

IV. ORDER
It is
ORDERED claims 1–31 of the ’822 patent are not held unpatentable;
and
FURTHER ORDERED that, because this is a Final Written Decision,
parties to the proceeding seeking judicial review of the decision must
comply with the notice and service requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 90.2.

ChanBond Cable Patent News:

The '622 patent allows high speed communication of data transfer by opening multiple RF channels. It can receive upto 10mb data and holds in eight channels and then combines it to produce upto 80mbps output. That is eight times normal throughput.

The '565 patent enables high speed communication of video signals via analog transmission. It dynamically creates multiple RF channels on demand and produces high speed video transmission.

After reading the documents it is clear cable companies are trying to discredit the validity of Chanbond patents by saying they are unpatentable because of "obviousness". However none of them were able to prove such claims and courts rejected their petition.

CISCO petition says that multi channel RF communication is somehow tied to prior art of single channel communication and for artisan with prior knowledge could open up another channel and call it multi-channel so it is so "obvious" and this art is not patentable. However multi channel communication involves a detector which detects which channel to use for transferring data by checking how much data each channel has and which channel is free to receive additional data for efficient and faster data transfer and also dynamically opening up new channel on demand to handle new data transfer request. This is not linked to any prior art hence courts rejected this petition.

RXP petition says that Chanbond combined prior art of Haugli and Grindahl to produce patent that is so "obvious" which any artisan with prior knowledge would have produced it but Chanbond lawyers able to prove that Grindahl and Haugli are two completely different methods of transferring data and can't be combined to produce better results. Courts rejected RXP petition as well as they unable to prove "obviousness".

When patents are granted it is checked for "obviousness" and "prior invention" so this was last shot for cable companies to defend their case and they are not able to do so. It all means big wins for UOIP/Chanbond.

Great news for Investors who are savvy on IPR infringement:

UOIP/Chanbond is suing one of the largest broadband companies in the world. List is below with their annual net revenues. There are few others which I left out.

Cisco 10 billion
Comcast 7.5 billion
Cablevision 6.5 billion
TimeWarner 4 billion
Charter 1.5 billion

Channel bonding video(CBV) got patent allowance in 2012 so Chanbond could claim royalty on infringement for past five years(2012-2016). If you take 10% as royalty percentage annually.

Total net revenues per year(all companies) = 30 billion

Chanbond could claim 10% royalty on patent infringement = 3 billion per year

Infringment happened for past five years so Chanbond entitled to

3 billion x 5 = 15 billion in royalty payment.

This is past due payments and doesnot include future payments and as Vortmax mentioned the patent life is for 20 years. So they could collect this type of payment in forseeable future.

15 billion per year x 20 years = 300 billion

Apple (AAPL) & Nokia End Patent Row, Forge New Partnership:

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/apple-aapl-nokia-end-patent-141602696.html

Apple Inc AAPL and Nokia Corp NOK announced that they have settled their patent dispute and forged a new business partnership.

"The two tech giants have chosen not to carry forward the patent wars which are characterized by long-drawn litigation in the tech space. Apple’s chief operating officer, Jeff Williams, said, “We are pleased with this resolution of our dispute and we look forward to expanding our business relationship with Nokia.”

Though details haven't been disclosed, under the agreement, Nokia will supply “certain network infrastructure product and services” to the Cupertino-based giant, while Apple will once again start selling Nokia’s digital health products in its retail and online stores. Apple also stated that Nokia will receive an “up-front cash payment” with “additional revenues during the term of the agreement.”

Nokia is expected to use the cash to fund its capital allocation plans. Details are likely to be available when the company reports its third-quarter 2017 results."

Inside Facebook's plan to eat another $350 billion IT market:

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/inside-facebooks-plan-eat-another-123000362.html

(Facebook CEO Mark ZuckerbergSteve Jennings/Getty)
"On an ordinary work day in mid-2016, a handful of Facebook engineers were sitting on the couches in a corner of the company's Menlo Park, California, headquarters when one of them tossed out a wacky idea.

He suggested doing something that had never been done before and could potentially upend the $350 billion telecom market.

"It can't be so difficult to build our own system," the engineer said, referring to the telecom equipment that sends data across cables and wireless networks, and which the engineer suspected could be made to operate faster and cheaper than the pricey equipment sold by big vendors like Nortel, Huawei, Ericsson, Cisco or Juniper Networks.

The engineer was suggesting building the telecom industry's first "white box" transponder, made with off-the-shelf parts such as chips from Broadcom and Acacia Communications, optical equipment from Lumentum, and software from one of the many new networking startups cropping up these days."
