Following the recent big deal regarding Nortel's patents and Motorola's patents, InterDigital's patents are scheduled to be the next big acquisition deal.
As to the seller, it is a good opportunity considering the uncertainty of future money making power in emerging LTE licensing market: InterDigital's licensing power in LTE is expected to be weaker compare to the situations in 2G and 3G based on TechIPm's LTE essential patent analysis over the past 3 years.
As to the buyers, it is also a good opportunity not only to make up their current LTE patent portfolio but also to get additional cash flow source through the existing InterDigital's licensing agreement.
