Paul: Patents only cost about $2000 per copy. Filling a normal patent can run anywhere from $500-$1000. One should hire a Patent Attorney to write the specification and draft the claims. That can run anywhere from $2000-5000. Next, amendments. Assuming that there is one action, an amendment will cost the applicant $1000. If it is not submitted within 3 months, that can cost an additional $110-$700. Next assume that it is allowed. The Issue fee usually costs the filing fee, add another 500-1000. Then maintenance fees down the road (you want to enforce it) several thousand dollars. A Patent, if issued, will cost the applicant at least $2000 (if they don't use an attorney) and at least $4000 if they use an attorney. But, the probablility of the low end is pretty low. dave
