More Than an Auction?
Reportedly, the "process" was to culminate in an auction next week, with bidders to include Apple, Samsung, Nokia (NYSE: NOK) and Qualcomm (Nasdaq: QCOM). However, Reuters reported on Wednesday that the event had been postponed until after Labor Day.
When asked to comment, Jack Indekeu, marketing director for InterDigital, told MacNewsWorld that "regretfully, we cannot comment on the timing of the process."
That process could be more than a patent auction, though, he added.
"It's not just about the patents," said Indekeu. "We're looking at what we can do with the entire company. That includes the patents, but also its engineering resources and licensing fees."
Apple did not respond to MacNewsWorld's requests for comment on its interest in InterDigital.
