"That's devastating news! They beat us to it," said David Medved, Optical Access's CTO, when Light Reading first told him about LightPointe's patent. Medved filed for a broadly similar patent back in September 1998, about five months later than LightPointe.

After 24 hours contemplation, Optical Access's Medved appeared more optimistic. "After a careful review of their patent it seems to me that they missed the main point," he wrote in an email to Light Reading. "All of their claims seem to involve adjustment of EDFA... power levels interactively or auto-alignment of transceivers. It would be interesting to see Willebrand's file wrapper to see whether he initially tried to claim the essential idea or was shot down by the Examiner who may have cited prior art against such claims."

Where is signist these days?
