okay wild ass guess.

If Nokia doesn't appeal the validity/enforceablility, it will be because nokia wants those patents valid when they buy IDCC.

Hah!

Robjer,


Try this with your negative spin.

WM mentioned times and again the APPLE license is a VERY GOOD license.

IDCC doesn't license to piece meal licensing deal, whether or not NOKIA infringes any particular license(s) does not likely to affect existing licensee.

IF there is anything left on the table, it will be all the better.

Robjer, how do you come up with that conclusion? He was basically saying what I have been saying all along IMO, that Nokia and the like might look at running royalty since the landscape is changing in terms of market share using Apple as an example. He said the shorter term fixed like, ie LG, IMO might have been a good deal for them, Apple is seven years and seemed to indicate that the longer contracts had some protection in them.
