Re: Verizon Wireless to introduce '3G'

<< IS VERIZON AN IDCC LICENSEE? IF NOT, SHOULD THEY BE? >

No, and why should they be ? Wireless operators do not need IPR to operate a system composed of components bought from IPR licensees.

IDCC licenses are limited to a few Japanese companies that somehow actually thought they needed it for their old technology.

Do not hold your breath for any new licensees.
