Tim,

What I could not understand about the holy one is that it looks like it makes Li-Ion batteries for cell-phones, that seemed like a simple and solid enough business. What I didn't understand was the implied royalties and patent portfolio. What's that about? Does this mean that (eg) the Nokia 8210 with its tiny batteries may be violating some polymer-substrate patent they have?

On the flip side, the days of the phone owner buying a spare battery is largely over. Even the tiny nokia 8210 lasts a good 5 days between recharging. It is even built in such a way that makes battery removal inconvenient.

jmho.
