My suggestion is not to try to take notes (the whole oral argument will be available later in the day). My advice is to watch the body language of all three judges as questions are asked of the both sides. Then after the oral arguments, download the mp3 file and listen to it 3-4 times.
Quilix, thanks for helping us out. You might be able to meet up with others from the board and just concentrate on one specific thing like the body language and comment on that... just a thought. Thanks again. Go Skins.
Thanks for the suggestions everyone. It does make a lot of sense to me to focus on body language and not worry about taking notes so that is what I will do. I also will listen to the recorded hearing after that as NukeJohn suggested and then will share on ihub what I was able to observe in the courtroom. Of course it would be great if none of that was necessary because of a settlement. While I hope those who think things at Nokia are changing are right I would have to see it to believe it. So to me a settlement would be a nice surprise.
As others have said it really seems as though IDCC the stock has moved beyond just the Nokia factor in the short term. I remember a few months ago I expected IDCC to trade in a range near the upper 20s and then break one way or the other based on the decision because well that just seemed to be its pattern. But it looks like a lot of other people have woken up to the fact that IDCC is undervalued with or without Nokia. Or as others have pointed out it may (also) be that after looking at the blue brief filed by IDCC some major investors felt it very likely IDCC would win.
