Rox re IDCC's essential patents in CDMA you replied:

...."They have enough to drive a substantial 3G revenue stream"

I'm assuming your above statement primarily applies to WCDMA, based upon your previously stated opinions. Could you furnish your opinions as to IDCC's essential patents in CDMA2000? Does IDCC currently have any "issued" patents that you feel are essential to CDMA2000, other than what QCOM has sublicensed rights to? Any issued patents that might be commercially important to CDMA2000, other than what QCOM has sublicensed rights to? Do you feel that IDCC might have some "applied for" patents for CDMA2000 in the pipeline that may be essential, and for which QCOM would not have sublicense rights to? Does Tantivy have any currently issued patents that you feel are essential for CDMA2000? Why do you think that IDCC's seems to be insistant that companies need to license CDMA2000 from us as well? As always, thanks for sharing your honest opinions.
