在ETSI本週晚些時候就nano-SIM標準的未來進行投票之前，這場爭論今天仍在繼續。這次投票的提案與蘋果以及諾基亞、摩托羅拉和RIM組成的財團有顯著不同。到目前為止，我們已經聽說蘋果將免費許可與其提議相關的專利——諾基亞迅速抨擊了這一說法，聲稱蘋果沒有相關的專利可以許可。

現在，諾基亞威脅ETSI說，如果設計被選擇而不是自己的設計，它將拒絕授權它認為對蘋果的提議至關重要的專利，再次表示，該設計根本“不符合ETSI的技術要求，這對消費者和移動行業都是低劣的，不必要地增加了移動裝置的成本。“我們已經研究了競爭對手的設計，而且蘋果的提議——基本上是一個縮小到晶片的micro-SIM——似乎更難實施。

實際上，如果諾基亞不許可專利——事實上，這些專利對標準至關重要——這意味著**商在法律框架內生產和使用nano-sim可能會更加困難或不可能。至於FRAND的擔憂，諾基亞將這段對話扼殺在萌芽狀態，稱這種強硬的新語言“不會影響”該公司對透過ETSI管理的其他無線標準的現有FRAND承諾。

換言之，諾基亞說，“選擇我們的標準，否則沒人會得到nano-SIM。”

以下是完整的宣告：

It has become clear that ETSI's current work on the 4FF standard is in conflict with ETSI's agreed rules, risking the adoption of a proposal which does not meet ETSI's technical requirements and which would be inferior for c***umers and the mobile industry, unnecessarily increasing the cost of mobile devices. "We believe that Apple is mis-using the standardization process, seeking to impose its own proprietary solution on the industry and using ETSI merely to rubber stamp its proposal, rather than following established principles and practices," said Henry Tirri, executive vice president and chief technology officer at Nokia. "We urge ETSI members to resist this behaviour, which is not in the best interests of the industry or, more importantly, of c***umers." Nokia has actively contributed to telecommunicati*** standardization for more than two decades. We believe that the overriding objective any standardization activity must be to collaboratively select the best technological solution, independent of individual commercial interests. It is imperative that the integrity of ETSI's standardization process should be upheld, with pre-agreed requirements and selection criteria used to ensure fair selection of the best technology. The proposal from Nokia, RIM and Motorola meets all of ETSI's pre-agreed requirements and more of its selection criteria and so should be selected on its technical merits. Nokia's objecti*** to Apple's proposal have never been related to intellectual property. However, as a result of the issues with the 4FF standardization work, Nokia is not willing to contribute its own IPR to the standard, if the Apple proposal is selected in violation of ETSI's rules. Nokia holds more than 50 patent families covering SIM related technologies that we believe may be essential to Apple's proposal. We have informed ETSI that, if Apple's proposal is selected, then Nokia will not license its relevant patents to that standard. This decision has no impact on Nokia's existing commitments to license its standard essential patents under FRAND terms to earlier adopted ETSI standards.
