InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

I don't look for a settlement. I expect this to go to the wire. Do I have a good informed reason to believe this? .. No.. other than this company has never made anything easy for me so why would I be so lucky this time to get anything positive early. I just figure to suffer on for a couple more weeks. Poor ole me.

Howie and rip? Idcc says this was in the works for awhile and not related to nok. I believe them. Who really thinks nok hires and fires idcc's personnel? Not believeable at all. If so, then it's all over because nok may now want to fire the whole works before they settle.

I do believe it is only going to be a 2g award. Conservatively looking for 200 mil. If more .. .. then negotiations may proceed regarding the size of the award in relation to a 3g settlement going forward. I also believe that idcc feels Merritt may be a better one to negotiate. I will look at this award closely regarding my decision to hold idcc shares in the future. I hope not to get caught in the flack or rose colored glasses this time. I may even go on line with JimCharts charts.. "shudder" .. .. nic
