As with most lawsuits for patent infringement, this one will blow by with little or no impact. Possibility of a brief buying opportunity on Thursday, so anyone with some "dry powder" should be on high alert and ready to move in (unfortunately, that doesn't include me). S/S PS: Wouldn't be surprised to see some sort of countersuit, or, an out of court settlement if there's anything concrete.

N. Economy: Thanks for the info. Like I said, I feel it will blow by with minimal effect. *** A (wealthy) investor/trader friend once told me: "If you've entered into a bad trade, there always seems to be one, though very brief chance to get out with minimal damage." Over the years, I've thought about this and it seems to be true. Problem is, it's usually VERY difficult to take the exit and accept the loss. Perhaps this will present a last chance to cover your short? Best of luck, S/S
