This will be interesting to say the least. I was really surprised at how they blew over the who blackberry suit with the federal government over ruling the injunction in order to protect their own users.

I think in the long run it will hurt us if we do not allow companies to protect their intellectual property. Why do I want to invest in R&D if a competitor is allowed to copy my work? This is a Qualcom problem and if they are guilty both Sammy and Verizzy should be protected. The question is wether or not they will be allowed to continue to provide devices with the questioned chipset during the interim. If I was broadcomm I would want them to because i would be looking at getting a kick from every phone that QC produced with my technology.

Also - I think it is safe to say that Verizon will not roll out a new phone if they cant keep the supply and demand balanced.
