Patent trolls. I'm surprised they haven't dug up a patent for the "power" button and sued every electronics company.

Hmm... Starts patent searc

 

 

First I admit I know squat about this case here

I don't know if they are patent trolls or not but I do think that people who jump to conclusion about legal verdicts like this are worse than patent trolls as they invalidate a system without thought.

Here's a google search on that company, find something they do other than file lawsuits. I dare ya!

I believe in the system, I also believe that Texas is one of the most corrupted states in the union.

 

I just looked at the parties in the case the atorneys for Nintendo were Latham Watkins by no means a small firm and one that I have worked for on occasion they are very detailed. If they couldn't win either the judge made some very bad rulings that excluded essential evidence or prior art. In fact it doesn't matter if they do not make anything only that they tried to make something and were rejected. I still am leaning towards this being a patent troll company but having read the actual complaint and the patents no it looks like there was some infringement though from what I read I could also think of examples of prior art which would perplex me how L&W never got it in.

 

dib8rman if you were on the jury all you would ever see is what the judge allows you to see. If it was found you used prior knowledge to come to a conclusion for damages it woudl be a mistrial.
