Lucky,,,I'm a fellow novice but I don't think so, here's why. We are 3 months from trial, if this was needed prior to trial IDCC would have filed this 3 months prior to the first trial date (Feb 10) or back in November, right. I won't sleep well this weekend, for once I think we have a valid reason to speculate on this coming to a conclusion very soon....party on Dudes
greed, are you sure they aren't talking about the night club fire from last night?
Jimlur, haven't paid a lot of attention to wi_fi but isn't it limited to a fixed position (100-300 meters)? If so for my use it would be limited...normally when I am doing business I am doing it leaving a client, on the way to the airport, in a hotel/rnetal car shuttle, walking thru the airport, driving 80 miles to my next stop.....I might be the exception but that limited range would be of little use to me
Tinh Trinh, I think he meant he felt "marooned" being he was done psoting and couldn't work on drving the price down any more, in good conscience...he blows his credibility if he EVER posts again..a man is only as good as his word....
Hot dang...I dang near guarantee no single digits by month end and then we won't have to listen to mr. anti anymore...however do you really expect a short and basher to keep his word...I doubt it but here's hoping...chime in here mack12, change your mind or find some excuse to keep up the b.s.
Quite a first post on this board for ole "brucespringsteeen", if he has been gearing up for that first post, lookout for how "good" they will be from here on out.
JK, thats right I completely missed where we were on the claendar...Presdents day Monday. Thanks for all your fine contributions.
OT: Sorry Bob I must have missed that post prior to janaury 31st that talked about that feature "probably going away someday". That is disappointing.....
Bob, what is the problem your server is having? Did you have these same problems prior to the Lifetime membership drive expiration? The board officially goes to pieces when you get rid of the filters for non paying members....JMO
ed---10-04, now I gotcha, I just had only noticed you post it a few times...
Ed ferrari, I looked at the link and still don't understand what you are trying to say. Its like me saying "Make Seven Up yours". Whats it have to do with anything about IDCC?
ed ferrari...Pain train? What is that about?
Amen..I was about to post very simliar.....Also, anyone find it odd that nobody in the market this a.m. is reading much into this Stockholm release...Once again it seems to be ignored, it amazes me IDCC is so far off the radar screen
ellis. 40 billion Swedish Kronor=4.719 billion US I believe.
40,000,000,000.00 SEK Sweden Kronor = 4,719,387,750.65 USD
United States Dollars
1 SEK = 0.117985 USD 1 USD = 8.47568 SEK
Great Post Loop, I printed and will keep in my office as a reminder of what this is all about as far as I am concerned...bravo to you
Firerocket,
I will tell you this, don't think that the folks at IDCC don't see what goes on on this board. They also have a pretty fair idea when an e-mail comes in who it is coming from. I don't think they will respond to people that are ALWAYS critical of them, with nary a good word. I also know from personal experience a reply back to me always depends on two things 1) What was the question pertaining to 2) How did the wording come across to them. I have errored several times (and have learned by it) in what questions I asked and how I asked them. As polite as one can be doesn't always hide your motive to IR, they see the same letters everyday and can read between the lines quite well. They have been burned in the past and play things extremely close to the vest, trust is a two way street and won't give everyone an answer. I respect Danny for having developed SOME dialogue with them over the last fews years, but believe me he EARNED it or they wouldn't talk to him.
art...IMO only, you are wrong (maybe the first time IMO) Ronny has my support, they are over compensated....period...for their performance thus far...they grab a billion from ERICY, pay out 5% in bonuses that made it happen, fine by me...pay bonuses and stock when you produce...I'm a common sales guy that gets paid when I produce and I think it should be that way...respect the hell out of you but agree with ronnie here
laranger, it does indeed get frustrating doesn't it? That second half of Interdigitals name, "Communications" just cracks me up. It is unbelievable how hard it is to get anything out of these guys...can you say the ultimate blind faith? Granted there are so many things they can't and shouldn't talk about but the guarded secrecy on nearly everyting isn't proper...IMO
OT: In case anyone is a little in the dark on National news I understand that Homeland Defense Office has/will elevate the security/terrorist threat to "red" today. Maybe that has something to do with the overall market going from a nice shade of green early, to red.
Mschere, the question is will IDCC EVER get paid for Nokias strong market share? Will IDCC somehow be written out of the story again. I think not, hopefully their red-headed stepchild status has changed.
That post should be deleted in my opinion, the original posted by technical that is.....
wait, did I read too fast and not deep enough? Was that written by Bill for his website....Wireless Ledger? I saw Nikkei and jumped to a conclusion
technical you 'da man, yes I like this part.........my bold, not theirs
The Chinese claim that their "home grown" version of 3G, TD-SCDMA (g), is even more efficient than WCDMA because of its even stronger reliance on TDD (g) technology, known for its ability to move massive amounts of data efficiently. Although the Chinese claim TD-SCDMA, it relies heavily on patented technology developed by the German firm Siemens (NYSE:SI) and the American firm InterDigital Communications Corp. (NASDAQ:IDCC). Siemens and InterDigital partnered in the development of a predecessor technology BCDMA (g) in the 1990’s. (As a new member of the World Trade Organization, the Chinese are expected to pay substantial royalties to both Siemens and InterDigital. Siemens says that TD-SCDMA does not require the use of QUALCOMM’s patented technology. Whether or not that is a bargaining ploy remains to be seen.) See the WirelessLedger.com exclusive report, < -- Vikki- under construction -- > "China and 3G, A Focus on TD-SCDMA
ellismd, as many here stated back when tantivity and Hop On hit, that those in essense could be token "signees". I have no idea but it floors me that they can state that they have these new 3G licnesees and they are no where to be seen on the company website? What in the HECK are we missing here? K of P continues to fit the name "Shaggy's Van" AKA "The Mystery Machine". In the end this might be a great story to write about, the most secretive public company ever. I just hope the story has a happy ending for us longs.
Any thought that it was Tantivity and Hop On....that technically they also included 3G licenses?
Amen revlis, In most organizations you are compensated AFTER you have produced the financial results.....unless you're Lebron James
Be nice to clean up "our" little mess before he takes the post wouldn't it?
Another one (mack12) bites the dust (HIDE THIS POSTER)! eom
Arthritis, ask me again in 5 months but if I had to say today....send mgmt packing....their handling of the situation Ronnie referred to is just another in a line of unacceptable blunders...thats my opinion only. I'm done bi'atching about it, doing it here doesn't do a bit of good. If there isn't a successful end to the ERICY fiasco they need to move on...
Speaking of Goals....any thoughts on whether IDCC will discuss the performance on last years goals and set forth those for 2003 at the cc? I doubt ERICY will be put to bed before then and until it is it seems as though the company is held hostage with getting much done "publicly". Behind the scenes I am betting there is some decent progress being made on several fronts that we are all concernd about.....
clamcakes, I am not a paying member either, these functions are availabe to all...
OT: Anyone having problem getting their scottrader ticker fired up this a.m.? thanks
teecee, I guess I am indeed "herman" time after time I have missed the boat on playing these short term trades. If nothing else I have learned a lot for future use on other stocks. Hopefully a year from now I will have good reason for not trading all these shares....dang if I don't tell myself that year after year
time flies I guess...seemed like July of 02' or later when they were accumulating but you've got the details
teecee, that was pretty quick wasn't it? Seemed like they were one of the accumulators in the summer/fall? Guess they doubled their money and hit the road?
starfe, must you be reminded to take your medication....? I thought you said this a.m. you were going to lighten up...
Those folks really get out to beat the bush when price is going down or when it stalls. They definitley dissappear when it heads north. How many were throwing out all the crud when IDCC moved from 10-19 a couple of months back? They are all on ignore.
ronnie, don't remind me of that 4 for 1!!!!!Toss that out and it has been sometime since they have shown their confidence with their wallet.
Technical...lets just be glad we are up at the moment and leave it at that. To get all worked up about SETTLEMENT will only bring the bashers out stronger if we turn south. AS Jimlur would say "just let it happen". GTSG...glad to see green
Question for the masses. Is anyone aware of the last substantial buys from Insiders at Interdigital with money out of their own pocket? Maybe they get plenty via compensation that wouldn't behoove them to buy their own due to portfolio inbalance? I just don't remember these guys showing their faith by spending their own money. Hope today is a turn around day for us.
