Agreed.

They might still be in play. But they probably won't need to announce that for quite some time, it seems to me.

I'm sure others are interested in IDCC, but to the level that a Google buy would have fetched, I don't think so. 12.5 billion is a big, serious number. Where is the compelling evidence that IDCC is worth that yet.

There is no one left that needed it as bad as Google. Samsung, after all builds everything from fridges to washer dryers to airplane engines. they might be happy to build cell phones in a commodity market.

The only way IDCC is going to get to a serious value is by proving it by stopping the importation of cell phones into the US, licensing a big lucrative agreement, winning a few big court cases . . . all of which they have yet to achieve in all the years that I've followed them.
