Has AT&T or VZW made any moves to offer a viable solution or work around to this matter?
They made their attempts as well.

petitioning and finding a worked around are two different things.
that's precisely what i was thinking...
You did include "viable solution" in your original post, you know. 😉
No personal shots here, i just like to point out funny coincidences.

Why? AT&T is also affected by the ban. 😕
Not to the same extent...some of AT&T's planned handsets are patent infringing, but not all, since AT&T offers handsets with chipsets from other companies other than Qualcomm.

I'm glad someone is doing something. Hopefully the others have followed or is doing the same on this stpuid ban.
Yeah, why bother with those pesky patents? Why bother with laws at all?

Why?! Just a shot in the dark, but to satisfy their consumers.
I would be much more satisfied if Pfizer satisfied its customers by nulling the patent it has on Viagara.
The ban is legitimate and legal. personally, I hope this frees Nokia up to develop their own CDMA chip. Maybe then other manufacturers will step up and CDMA phones will work better and be cheaper. Right now CDMA phones are more expensive than GSM phones, mainly because of the Qualcomm chip.

Um, I was being sarcastic.
i think since the ban doesn't actually go into effect until august, the release would've been okay.
