If IDCC's patents are invalidated. Then why couldn't Qualcoms patents be put in the same boat?
Let us not forget that Nokia IMO is trying to pull the samething with Qualcom.
Nokia in good faith, negotiated 2 and 3G licenses with IDCC. A legal contract that I might add was up held by the ICC arbitration board.
It is to bad that Nokia thought they could use their financial leverage to string IDCC along to make more legal problems for Ericsson.
Well the tables got turned on them didnt it?
Other IPR users have and are signing up with IDCC. They dont seem to be concerned.
Seems to me going to court to prove what you are saying is going to be pretty tough going for Nokia after what they tried to pull. I would think the court would ask Nokia why were IDCCs patents good when you negotiated a license and now today you say they need to be invalidated?
Most companies do DD and a test validity dont they before they sign an IPR license?
I dont believe Nokia would want to say well we only wanted to cause more legal problems for Ericsson and take out IDCC. Because I think thats the only answer they could give except Nokia doesnt want to pay anything for IPR. They just want to use it for a while for free LOL!
I still believe Nokia thought IDCC would be bankrupt by legal proceedings by now and gone away.
Now Nokia wants to take on Qualcom and they havent even won their case with IDCC yet LOL! What kinda vanity is that?

A no win situation IMO.
