InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

GAB, sure hope we are right about everything else but the timing of what is going to happen with Nokia! Seems like you are hoping for a settlement soon, and I'm cautioning that InterDigital may require Nokia to do a lot more than just get squared up on 2G payments before agreeing to a settlement.

It would be gang busters to see Nokia roll over on 2G AND 3G issues in the next few weeks, but so far they have chosen to do things the hard way. One of the ways that has affected my actions here has been to keep my bets on the long term outcome being what we are counting on(buy and hold the shares), and to stay off trying to play the timing with call options.

I'm lucky to get ONE thing right on stocks! Trying to get the outcome right AND call the timing on when it will happen is way too much juice for these old nerves.
