'amrwonderful' RE:NOK arbitration


"My point in my previous post is that it would be a pretty short-sighted move to be an a-hole with IDCC when you may have to eat crow once the NOK arbitration is done."

My original expectation for the ERICY settlement was half of
what was being bantered around....the fact is .....we didn't
come close.
While I am not technically comparing the NOK arbitration to
the ERICY settlement.... I have to consider the fact that
almost everyone [if not everyone] was completely blind
sighted by the outcome. Many like myself recognized it was
better to get this albatross off our backs and 'move on'....
collect the money from NOKIA and start wrapping up the new
licensees.
That was over a year ago....we will now have to wait again...
Again MY expectations are for a favorable outcome ... my legs
are a little wobbly this time. I still have a lingering
emotional allergy when thinking of IDCC'S legal matters.
I avoid thinking about it as it serves no purpose ... but I
refuse to consider it as nothing more than a shear formality
with a a clear ending.
The arbiters have asked for an extension of
time to make a determination. I assume this delay is to allow
them the opportunity to carefully review a wide range
of complex issues that maybe beyond the scope of our
understanding.
From my perspective we have the winning position....otherwise I obviously wouldn't be here....but I am not on the panel...and I am not privy to all the legal arguments and nuances that will be put forward.
If it were a 'slam dunk' we wouldn't be trading at 15.95 .
Ask the legal eagles[atorneys if it's a 'slam dunk'

here's to hoping my perspective....
and I assume all longs..... is correct.....ALLEY
