You are not providing factual information on the Samsung 2g at all. At this point IDCC has nothing set in stone except a judgment for the Samsung II award which continues under appeal. I do believe that IDCC must be forthcoming with the amount that it is applying to 2g in its settlement with Samsung because it is a one time revenue event. I do find it completely amazing that Samsung III has not issued a 2006 award. I would not use the ICA/ICC if it was free to settle disputes for me.
First you said "you have to remember the settlement also resolves the 2g issue where we have a unanimous arbitration award and court verdicts confirming the award which will amount to $200 million when you add in the 2006 sales that were not in the original calculation. So when I stated a settlement of $500 million it takes this amount into account".
Later you said "$500 million is at the very low end of what we should be getting for 3g".
So is the $500 million for 3G only or both 2G & 3G?
Also, in an earlier post of mine (http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=34729083) I stated that the 3G estimates for SAM for 2006-2008 would be 216 million units. If you assume a buck per each of these 3G units, that means SAM could owe IDCC $416 million for 2G & 3G from Apr 2006 thru 2008.
So if we only get $500 million like you suggest, that means we would only get $84 million for all 3G uints for 2009-2012!
