Did BlackBerry get awarded more in this arbitration than they have made selling devices? (Former RIM employee - this isn't a jab, genuine question)
It seems like premium manufacturers are having a problem with Qualcomm's licensing and the FTC and courts are sympathetic.<p>How much value is added by Qualcomm to a Blackberry or iPhone? My limited understanding is that every sold - even unrelated - feature added to the phone effectively included a tax to Qualcomm. It is a great business model until it isn't.
<i>We [..] look forward to collaborating with Qualcomm in security for ASICs</i><p>??<p><i>BlackBerry is a mobile-native security software and services company dedicated to securing people</i><p>???<p>Can someone explain what BlackBerry think they are doing nowadays?
