IQ,
I thought it was also telling when ITC counsel Valentine kept saying that codes were not required to spread anything and that IDCC's short codes didn't spread anything. That seemed to fly in the face of the claims construction adopted by Luckern that all codes referenced by IDCC were spreading codes and performed a spreading function.
If I am not mistaken, at that point, didn't one of the Judges ask if that wasn't the argument IDCC was trying to make? Nokia counsel Flynn had to be coming out of his chair by then. Nokia has pulled out some miracles in these proceedings but this one will be hard to dig out of.
Given the tone of the hearing today, Nokia will still not settle unless a cease and desist is ordered. I hope it comes soon.
