InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

It is not possible for my mind to comprehend that IDCC would make this announcement in A/H today, without another “surprise goodie” tomorrow in the a.m. Even they, know that would be the final straw for most Institutional Investors, and therefore, it is simply not an option. Assuming, the above is rational, then what in the ‘heck’ are they thinking?

Looking for a positive spin on what might be coming out tomorrow, and that is not,
about Nokia, or the arbitration.

What if, Merritt, has finally signed that “new well known licensee”(and trigger?) to a 2G and 3G agreement, and, thus ending, another litigation as well? They (LU) are in need of a great big band-aid about now, so possibly even a JV?

Or, for that matter, a new PLA with any other “trigger”?

One can only imagine that if any of the above, is more than delusional, there must be some underlying justification for today’s events. IMDO

Here we go....gotta love this drama.

Merritt is articulate and, I believe, much less conservative.......is that good or bad? Who the hell knows and only time will tell. Remember, he was the guy that virtually assured us that we would get a new well known licensee in Q4 of 2003. That didn't happen and we haven't heard from him since. Now he's the pres.

I suppose it is possible that the company is confident in a positive Nok outcome and considers this a perfect time to get off to a fresh start with a new, more robust CEO. However, the loss of Rip is troublesome.
