My e-mail to Ericsson IR..and to PWC.


Question..While I understand existing Ericsson's financial provisions provide
for existing litigation..If IDCC forces Ericsson to trial..and subsequently
prevails and asks for treble damages as is currently being asked for in Harris
vs.Ericsson.. and either or both Companies prevail..Will there then still be sufficient provisions to cover this contingency?..As a concerned
investor in Ericsson ADR's ..I would appreciate your input on this
matter. Thanking you in advance..MSCHERE.

I remain in the "we're going to trial" camp.

Ericy needs time to get closer to profitability, to prove the pundits wrong.

Although they risk being branded a "double-infringer", they also could win.

If they lose, they could wipe the record clean by settling after a jury verdict, but before a final ruling by Judge Lynn.

So far, they haven't blinked and settled with Harris, even though they know Judge Lynn could rule at any time.
