Blue:

For the past few days I have been reading of your support of more executive options for IDCC. I put together the data that Ronnie so kindly quoted that showns IDCC executives are over compensated. I do not buy you arguement that only IPR companies should be included. To me that's a red herring. Having been active in both product and IPR producing businesses, running a company with manufacturing, production facilities, inventories, hundreds of customers, product obsolescence, off shore mfg and suppliers, etc is almost infinitely harder than managing IPR.

So few comnpanies are solely IPR companies not because it is intrisically more difficult to manage, but because it is more exposed to alternative technologies instantly making one's IPR obsolete. (Just look at TD-SCDMA in China.)
