Ranger - last one I could find on "thousand" from recent calls....shows where our contributions went....and why our number was so low in the report. As I stated in my comments on the report, we will see the number of our essential patents change as WTDD is rolled out.

HOWARD GOLDBERG: I won't pretend that China is the same as everywhere else. Bringing value-added propositions to a strict patent-licensing scenario certainly helps with the proposition. But China has also been very public, in terms of its commitment to abide by -- as part of the WTO admission -- to abide by major commercial conventions throughout the world, including the area of IPR, where there is a substantial focus. And one of the best ways that they can demonstrate WTO compliance is to enter into intellectual property agreements with companies that have a clear position in their respective markets. We believe we have a very clear position, as a result of over thousand contributions to the TDD standards bodies in over 600 excepted, contributions, in terms of the role we have played in the architecture and defining of TDD technologies.
