Qualcomm Incorporated (A Delaware Corporation) v Nokia Corporation (A Finnish Company)

Mr Antony Watson QC, Mr Guy Burkill QC and Mr Thomas Hinchliffe (instructed by Lovells) for the Claimant Mr Michael Silverleaf QC and Mr Adrian Speck (instructed by Bird & Bird) for the Defendant Hearing dates: 26th � 30th November; 3-4, 6-7, 10-11, 13-14 and 17-18 December 2007 ____________________

i) Mr Children. He was an entirely fair witness, who was called to deal with the likelihood of implementation of PCCCH.

iii) Mr Knapp is Qualcomm's Senior Vice President, Marketing. He was a member of one of the CDMA committees in the early 1990s. He was an entirely fair witness, but one whose recollection of the relevant events was understandably hazy.

iv) Mr Salmasi was cross examined by video link. As an engineer, he initiated and led the development of CDMA at Qualcomm, which he had joined in 1988. Mr Silverleaf says he was only willing to speculate when the answer would assist Qualcomm and not otherwise. I think there was something in this. However Mr Salmasi's evidence was evidence of fact, and the events in question were many years ago. I do not think that he was trying to be misleading in giving his evidence about what occurred. He did so to the best of his recollection.
