I have just read that FP article very carefully and feel it is extremely positive. The medium term downside risk appears to be minimal IMO. Any one of the big Gorillas such as Nortel, Cisco or Lucent could try to buy out WIN & run with their IP. What do others think? The following extract from the article is the best part IMO. Cheers!!!

Rob Millham, analyst at Research Capital Corp. in Vancouver, said he does not expect Cisco to fight Wi-Lan over its patent, and will likely resolve the matter more peacefully. He said Wi-Lan stands to gain because of its strength as a potential takeover target.

He upgraded Wi-Lan's share target to $30 yesterday from $15.

"It's one of the best acquisition targets we've ever seen," said Barry Richards, a Toronto analyst with Sprott Securities Ltd. "It's a small company in a very, very large market."
