Rich - I don't underestimate the Nokia factor at phone retail point of purchase. Would it be a direct marketshare swap with another cdma phone provider - IMO, no. I'm amazed at how many of the little booths in shopping malls will sell out of Nokias to people that didn't even shop for a plan when they bought a phone (or bought their Nokia) - meaning they didn't even give CDMA a chance in their selection process.

My estimate for royalty increase IF Nokia could bring product to Verizon, Sprint, Latin and South America is an incremental 5-10%.
