sonic: The comment about NEC was in the form of a question, not an actual statement.

Merritt(In response to is NEC pissed off that LG isn't paying): "We're vigilant. These companies don't like to see us." IMO, he sounded like Bush saying he's gonna get the terrorists.

No,

I asked if NEC is upset that LG was competing and not paying. I was attempting to get comments on both the status of LG and the status of Motorola being that they both supply WCDMA phones to Hutchinson in direct competition with NEC.

Merritt was very careful with his answer and avoided the subject of specific companies. He did state that their is an obligation in the NEC license to ensure that royalties will be paid. Basically I took a shot knowing that they would dance very carefully around the questions.
