Fair and reasonable is are subjective terms. There are variables that can change
what is fair and reasonable, anyone with a basic understanding of maths knows
that if you have different views on things you are going to have different ideas
of fair and reasonable. That is what negotiations are for, not judges.

"negotiating in good faith" - ROFL

That - of course - explains totally why MS didn't even enter the negotiating room and sued instead.

really? Since when?

when did anyone say what a FRAND rate's range has to be? When
did anyone say that FRAND rates should be set by a judge?

moto's offer wasn't frand because the rate set by the judge
was very low, so moto's offer wasn't frand... considering what
the judge has done is unprecedented, i'm going to go out on a
limb and suggest that there is a good possibility he is wrong.
the court of appeals will decide one way or another
eventually, i'm sure.

48. The best book on programming for the layman is "alice in wonderland"; but
that's because it's the best book on anything for the layman.

...that FRAND negotiations have to be FRAND...

Please tell me when the negotiation part happened, because I seem to have missed it completely. Unless, of course, there was no negotiation to begin with.
