quartzman0, got it. It is ticking along okay now. Wishes will come true.
-vg_future
quartzman0, so many hungry eyes waiting for the same FEED I guess...it was fun while it lasted.
Goodluck all longs!
-vg_future
sjratty, thanks. I see it trading now.
-vg_future
quartzman0, I see GOOG and QCOM (and many other) ticking along okay.....I assume they come from the same feed of the exchange. Anyway, would be intresting to see what unfolds.

Nasdaq site doesn't list IDCC as halted (yet???). I am not sure if this is delayed or current.

I watch it occasionally (too much bandwidth consumption at my work). Most of my knowledge is what is posted on this board. I heard couple of times that FACT was on the sell side (I might be remembering it wrong or it could be a fake signal). I am more than okay if IDCC is buying at these levels...shows confidence and also helps us to get into a higher trading range. I heard on this board or yahoo board yesterday that FACT pulled out of the bid side (price was lot cheaper yesterday)....I am not sure if it is because of the ASM or not....but, there was no specific NEWS out of ASM yesterday and that confuses me as to FACT being the agent (or atleast being the only agent).
-vg_future
Ellix, FACT acting for IDCC is just one of the theories. That could and might have changed. There could be more than one agent for IDCC. I don't think any company would make its buyback so conspicuous or obvious that traders can benefit from it and manipulate it. JMHO.
-vg_future
linedrivehitter, I kind of ignored your first post thinking that it is a sarcasm on someone.....what are you talking about??? Are you pushing your trading strategies....sorry if I missed something. I appreciate if you can enlighten. I persoanlly think that it is different this time around. I would say we will be heading into 30s rather, of course FWIW.

KAJO7710, Thanks. EOM.

laranger, with your kind permission....for the waiting eyes.

badgerkid, I totally agree. We were trading around 28 (and Sammy didn't play a role then) after the earnings release. Unfortunately after that, market had a 2 week long minor crash and took us down with it. Now, we are trading back at the 28 levels due to earnings guidance and Panasonic and all of a sudden how come it is about Samsung???!!! I can understand the expectations and dissappointments theory, but, I think and believe this run is about IDCC delivering on the promises and some ASM expectations.
Goodluck All!
-vg_future
lotoworld, hope IDCC puts a muffler/silencer on these guys forever.
-vg_future
jtaylor, PLA with SAMSUNG should give us a clear picture and put an acceptable multiple to the share price.
-vg_future
laranger, same here. He is now just posting his wish list not opinions anymore.
-vg_future
laranger, he is only here to save poor souls. No cases to argue and hence he has taken up IDCC's case and fighting for the cause or should I say saving us mortals.
-vg_future
Looking on the bright side, when the so called pseudo attorney and his little buddies come out and start predicting the gloom, usually IDCC strikes back and puts them in their right place (at least that's what it did last couple of times). So, I am eagerly awaiting the next big thing out of KOP.
-vg_future
sjratty, you are going too far. Do you know anything about earnings, future earnings and how stocks or valued or you are just dreaming to your's heart content? What is your stand....you sold out bunch of calls or trying to get in at lower prices?
You are squinting trying to look on both sides of the coin.
-vg_future
ellismd, cool. That's great. That is the least we can do as shareholders.
Thanks,
-vg_future
dmiller, yes, I forgot to mention about naked shorting.
-vg_future
spencer, okay, makes sense. I will check with them again.
-vg_future
Luckyk57 & Gamco, To the best of my knowledge that is true. When I checked with my broker I was told that in a regular (non-IRA) account the shares cannot be used for shorting (i.e., broker cannot use/borrow the shares for shorting) if there is a sell order on them.
However, I like that big number....I like the spirit.
-vg_future
Your wish of seeing the stock below 25 would be qualified as day dreaming or pipe dreaming. Goodluck with your trading and hope you get caught when you least expect it (probably it might have already happened).
-vg_future
olddog967, thanks. Yu da man. I still think IDCC is little flexible about the materiality of events (or as you said they might be specifically defined by SEC and only we are not privy to that info) and includes the PLAs depending on the situation. Just a hopeful thought.
-vg_future
olddog967, trying to understand. So, is it a mandatory inclusion (and common practice) in the 10-K or is it mandatory due some other reason? Did IDCC publish Kyocera's PLA?
TIA.
-vg_future
DataRox, okay. Thanks.
-vg_future
DataRox, thanks. Interestingly there is a Motorola's RAZR phone on the first and last slides. Hmmmmmm....just wanted to say something positive....nothing more nothing less.
-vg_future
lastchoice, yes. Thanks. EOM

For any confused and panicking souls out there, this is just a "tax withholding" and is equivalent to the tax witholding at the source on a typical paycheck. Few of the restricted stock units (RSUs) were withheld by IDCC for tax liability when they got vested on 5/5/06.
From the Form 4
1. This sale reported in this Form 4 reflects the withholding of restricted stock units (RSUs granted under the Company's 1999 Restricted Stock Plan which vested in part on May 5, 2006) in satisfaction of the Reporting Person's tax liability.
wilco244, this is not a sale by Merritt, but, his shares were sold (by IDCC) for tax liability. You just gave half the story when you said ouch.
-vg_future
Not a ouch at all...from Form 4 1. This sale reported in this Form 4 reflects the withholding of restricted stock units (RSUs granted under the Company's 1999 Restricted Stock Plan which vested in part on May 5, 2006) in satisfaction of the Reporting Person's tax liability.
Just 1320 shares.

-vg_future
Very small amount...that too tax withholding (I guess most probably it is IDCC that sold this not Merritt).
-vg_future
songioan, (5300 x 70 = 371000) + (2000 x 65 = 130000) = 501000

loophole73, probably the parties are trying to resolve the 3G issues. Would be great to see Samsung onboard.
Here is a toast for your private island dream.
-vg_future
JimLur, thanks. That's great. I will wait for the update then.
-vg_future
Thanks sailfreeee. Appreciate it.
-vg_future
From hannibal on yahoo,
"EPS in 2007 IF we get the 3G's signed...thats a $100 stock price!!!!"
JimLur, do we have a new report from Carpenter? TIA

handovercash, just state it as your opinion and let others enjoy the ride and Samsung NEWS.
-vg_future
Guys, just enjoy the ride. We can figure out rumors some other time.
Congrats to all longs!
-vg_future
sjratty, you don't expect...you hope for one. Smell the freshness in the air and relax.
