Thanks. Good explanation of where Germany is with respect to the questions I asked. So under current German law more than one license is allowed, provided the total of the licenses does not exceed what would be expected if only one license issued (in our case to microprocessor manufacturer). But if the license cost is not public .......????

Ok, so who shares liability for MMP infringement in Germany? Do we have anyone willing to take a shot at that? HTC makes the phone, but who made the microprocessor? Why is DT involved in this? I assume all they do is sell the phone. Is that act infringing? If not, then perhaps the nullity request by DT has nothing to do with HTC. ???? Opty
