I read this as he really hopes that there is an out of court settlement. I suspect there a many things that Qualcomm does not want exposed in a discovery process that would aid the government agencies that are currently investigating them.

Have you noticed that Florian stopped reporting on the trial as soon as the FTC had made their case and it became QC's chance to answer and defend? He's already crowned the FTC as the victor. A dozen articles in just a few days explaining the FTC's arguments and now barely a mention of Qualcomm's. 

I believe the reason why it appeared that Mr. Mueller stopped reporting after the FTC rested on Tuesday had less to do with him crowning a winner and more to do with the fact that there was no court action until Friday. He and other reporters continued their live tweeting on Friday when the case resumed with Qualcomm presenting their case. He posted his summary of what was presented yesterday on his blog today.

In the long run it will not matter what Mr. Mueller or any other blogger says about this case, just like it does not matter what commenters say about football games being played. Both are there to help explain what is happening to the viewers and in general neither are always correct. While I do not always agree with Mr. Mueller I do find his explanations to often be well reasoned and he his pretty good at trying to show when he may be biased.

The only people who’s opinion on this case that are going to matter will not be Mr. Mueller’s, his readers, his clients or his critics. Rather they will be Judge Koh, the US 9th Circuit Appeals Court and possibly the US Supreme Court.
