InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

Jai, In response to" So why wait 9 months while LG drags their heels hoping Nokia wins. We got cash and Fullbright so I'd go after them now" I have long suspected that Idcc has an informal agreement with Ericy that they will sign for 3G if and when Nok pays for 2G, thus validating that Ericy is a trigger for the Nok contract. This way, Ericy will not be at a competitive disadvantage with Nok for 2G or 3g. I believe that if Idcc thought there was a significant chance they would lose the Nok arbitration, they would have already started suit with Ericy or other major OEM's over 3G. They expect that when Ericy signs and Nok pays, others will follow. If I am wrong and Ericy still won't sign, then we would need to sue.
