Just found this on Yahoo. IMO it bodes well for IDCC investors.

Buyout offer initially $45-48 which would be sweetened to $ 55
Your post lacks substance. Please give us your source.
Yes it does yet it also shows how foolish mgt is for sitting on the cash. They would be up what? about 60-80% or more if they used that cash to buyback shares when BN reprimanded them for doing nothing with the cash. In hindsight, BN was spot on and mgt was NOT.
Is it possible that mgmt is hoarding cash to be a more attractive buy-out candidate?
New report on IDCC...........

Hey..........what's up? Looks like we will trade more than 1 million shares today. Anybody have an idea what's going on? tia
Talk about YOYO stocks...........GOIG is up 20% versus down 20% the other day!
I did sell most of my shares a couple months ago for a loss, but still hold a couple thousand shares.
Hopefully I'll be able to leverage the loss against a huge gain with IDCC..........key word hopefully.
Sheesh.........OUCH...........GOIG is having a bad day!
Please post some pics. I always enjoy seeing pretty youngsters. If possible, take the pics with a phone that has IDCC products inside :)
MJP, the overdue good news is that Nokia is dead last in the US, and appears headed for bad things that will be caused by their competitors. What better news can you want.
My thoughts exactly!
Mickey, you do have friends here.........this I know for sure. The Telecom Corner has been somewhat quiet lately so it's possible that many members don't check in everyday. IANAL so I really can't offer you any advice. I do know that life isn't always fair.
Thanks for posting the PDF reply, M3S. That is the first time that I have seen and read it. Very compelling for IDCC in my opinion.
Will Facebook be licensing with IDDC?

Hmmm.................and once again IDCC is on the move! Come on Nokia, sign the dotted line.
And yet another nice move for IDCC.........let's keep it going!
Nice upward move with IDCC today..........I like it!
Mickey, that was one of the most decent posts I've ever read.........and is why I joined your board. Keep slugging away!
I'm still in.........unfortunately :(
Jim, all I can say is one word: HOO-YAH.
Good on ya!
Yes Mickey, OldDog is correct. I should have said you were right on instead of nuts on. Anyways......I'm in agreement with you!!!!!!
Welcome back Mickey and great post, btw. Sad but true, I think you are nuts on when you say management is self serving. I'm not sure how much longer I'll remain in this stock. I've been patiently hanging on for over 7 years............whoa's me!!!!!!!!!!
Miller, I think Mickey has been busy building houses on some lots he owns.
This might be the reason for today's uptick in IDCC. Scroll to the bottom!!!!

Looks like decent guidance from IDCC........

Great answer, Magilla. All I can say is YIPPEE KAYAY.
Hmmm, maybe this gave us a push.

Thanks!
You are very right. Politics don't belong here.
Btw, it looks like IDCC is giving back the rise in share price from the past couple days. Are there anymore form 4's out?
Seems a little ironic that Frank and Dodd were appointed to write financial legislation.....

And, especially after being a recipient of campaign funds........

In my opinion the only thing partisan about this mess is that both dems and repubs were on the receiving end of pay-offs.
Maybe this has more to do with it than the chart.

Are IDCC's patents undervalued?
http://seekingalpha.com/article/213390-is-interdigital-s-patent-portfolio-undervalued?source=yahoo
Is IDCC going to do something that blows them away or will they just keep sucking the blood out of the stock?
Sorry to say, but my vote is they will keep sucking blood until Nokia issue is resolved.
Wonder if we should be taking the gains soon or hold on for bigger things. Who has a crystal ball?
Ya got me! I'm just going to hang on to my shares for now and wait to see what happens. Like Mickey says, it's a make it or break it stock.
Make that 40%
Anybody notice GOIG is up 28% today?

I'm not going to rush out and buy another gun solely because of this ruling... maybe some will in Chicago or Washington if those laws are overturned.
Actually you are right. Outside of Chicago and DC most states already allow gun ownership. After a little more thought, I wish some ammo makers were public companies because people are stock piling most handgun calibers. If you can find .45acp you'll pay a heavy premium for it. It's about double what it was 3-4 years ago.
With todays Supreme Court ruling, it might be a good time to buy shares of Smith & Wesson.

Great comparison charts, Bulldzr. With Nokia taking a nose dive, one has to wonder if they'll be able to pay IDCC when the time comes.
I know it's good news to expand a license agreement with Inventec, but it sure would be nice if they would explain in dollars & cents so we can see how it effects the bottom line.
Think about it... it doesn't matter a rat's backside how you took olddog's post, because it wasn't directed at you.
Or you.....for that matter.
It only matters how Mickey took it.
So true!
Look, for the most part, you are doing a good job as moderator but you appear to be slightly thin-skinned about certain topics. Like I said...I agree with you on many items regarding IDCC, but this board doesn't need pizzing matches over stupid shit or misunderstandings. IIRC, Old Dog has been a decent contributor to IDCC forums over the years and deserves benefit-of-doubt.
