olddog967, the pressure could be from institutions and maybe they are not satisfied with his CEO performance (though he has many accomplishments....LG/Samsung/Pantech....to claim) due to lack of share price appreciation. His move could be forced....I am theorizing a lot...so, let me stop my assumptions here. I just had a thought that a COO of QCOM would give an excellent facade for IDCC and since BM had accomplishments to his credit, I didn't want to rule him out with further role in IDCC's future and hence the COB theory. Again, as I said, I am making too many assumptions/theories. So, I just want to see how this plays out.

Just a further comment in regard to my previous statement that "Although the trend is against it, there is no rule that I am aware of that prevents a CEO from also being COB." While that is a general statement, as far as IDCC goes, their published corporate governance policies, requires the COB to be an Independent Director.
