Prophet, Lexar Media SanDisk still has the option of filing an injunction. The Lexar registration statement says this could happen at any time, if I recall correctly. (Then they would be forced into releasing their product with the new and improved "design around".) I doubt that SanDisk resort to this, because I think Eli is more in favor of promoting CF than trying to force people out of business and limiting consumer access to CF. They could certainly start taking actions as if they were proceeding with an injunction in the hope that Lexar would capitulate. Well, I guess we'll have to leave that up to SanDisk legal to decide. Anyone have a rough idea how long a patent nullification trial can go on? Do they just review the expert testimony and judge's ruling on the infringement, or is additional evidence entered and we start the whole thing over from scratch? Ausdauer
