To analyze any potential buyout value it can be broken down by looking at what a licensed OEM for 3G might pay for 4G?

For example lets say LG will probably be paying over $400 m[guess] for 4G.If they buy IDCC they save $400M.They then license Samsung for $500M They get about 600M in net cash from IDCC plus ongoing 3G license fees.Add in the nokia 3G license settlement,either through litigation or actual settlement about 600M.Nokia will also need a new 4G license,estimate 500M..add it up and estimate back revenues from all OEM's.Add current mkt opportunities,engineers,patents in progress but not issed.One can see how the low price might be 118 a share and the high even $200.

My guess 7B now because of the LG rights news.They will probably partener with Samsung and a few other Asian OEMs.
