More impressions on the Lexar ruling...

eetimes.com

"We are thrilled by this ruling," said Dan Auclair, senior vice president
for business development at SanDisk (Sunnyvale, Calif.). "This is a
clear decision that they were infringing on our patent."

SanDisk filed a complaint against Lexar (Fremont, Calif.) in March
1998, claiming the digital storage card vendor violated a fundamental
SanDisk patent covering storage cards with on-board controller
functionality. "Any removable flash memory card that includes a
controller will infringe upon our patents," said Auclair. "It's a pretty
broad patent."
