@rgbrenner: First, Qualcomm chipset also comes with IPs owned by Samsung and a slew of other wireless patent holders who crossed-licensed theirs with Qualcomm. Samsung and LG, along with Qualcomm, are the largest contributors of LTE SEP's and make up the bulk of LTE patents (KFTC likewise found that Qualcomm used its monopolistic position to force them to cross-license their patents for almost nothing in return). So no. Even if you stack everything, it won't be anywhere close to your nonsensical $77. Second, under ETSI (see section 1.11), Qualcomm has the right to refuse the granting of licenses.
