Questions for Attorneys.
Interesting point brought up by Teecee the other day on law suits about IDCC not suing 3G infringers because it wants 3G fought in US courts. I'm not sure if I'm correct or not but I'll make some assumptions as to why only LU is being suied.
To date I do not think that there are any 3G systems in place in the US. So if LG for instance is not selling 3G products in the US, IDCC can't sue them here? (not sure if this is correct).
LU has not sold 3G products in the US yet, so the law suit does not contain any 3G patent infrigement claims.
Cingular has now contracted LU to deliver a UTMS network for the Atlanta area. Once LU starts to deliver 3G products for this system, IDCC may be able to add 3G claims to the law suit if the law suit has not proceeded too far.
Are these assumptions right?
