Perhaps a little, but I have only one source on this. A report is out that Guidant is about to settle with JNJ over the
'basic' stent patnets that JNJ holds. Included in the rumored deal is a part of Biosense that JNJ owns. The number
I read for the settlement was $400,000,000 and that included the Biosense piece.

The number is larger than I expected and puts pressure on MDT and BSX to settle the case as well or risk a trial.
We shall see if this information holds up. I am merely a relay on this one folks, trust your own due diligence and do
not believe every 'rumor' some idiot like me posts on this board.

Cheers,
