Not that I agree with going to court (always found the US to be too litigious for my tastes) but if what a company is after is money, they'd do well waiting in the sidelines for a bit.


Yeah but it just goes to show how screwed the system is.  There should be a time limit within which the patent owner can file a claim.  Right now, it’s BS.  You shouldn’t be allowed to wait a year or two for the tech to become popular then say "oh… by the way, you infringed our patent a couple of years back, and now we want compensation."
