Bim, the last I heard our license with HTC was still valid, and as I understand it, we would be paid by them, yes?
Additionally, I would not be surprised to find that Spreadtrum "might" be one of the parties involved in one of our arbitrations.

InterDigital Communications Corporation today announced that its subsidiary, InterDigital Technology Corporation (ITC), has signed a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing patent license agreement with High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC) covering the sale of wireless terminal units and infrastructure built to Second Generation (2G and 2.5G) IS-136/GSM/GPRS/EDGE and Third Generation (3G) WCDMA/CDMA2000/TD-SCDMA standards. HTC is one of the world's largest original design manufacturers of Windows Mobile-based Pocket PC, Wireless Pocket PC, and Smartphone products.

"This agreement expands our 3G licensee base, marks our progress in entering new geographical markets, and confirms our ability to license our patented inventions across multiple standards and a broad range of mobile wireless devices and manufacturers. It also affirms InterDigital's position as a recognized developer and contributor of essential wireless technologies."
