Jim: Your post reads as if you have talked to my high-tech financial expert! Recently, he (the financial expert)gave me a lecture on the same (telecom..)issues---not too different than what is ("in more detail") in Dr. Bill Delglish posts/site, etc; He also talked about other issues...e.g., OS, & Internet.

ManX
p.s., OT:He also is high on linux & internet...Amzon type stuff...& Corel--- but not much on Red Hat. He is in love with the technology stuff & Silicon kids with 5X million (investing funds) in their pockets!

Jim:

I still have a hard time figuring out how ERICY is going to find an expert witness to prove the USA patent office was wrong twice for approving the patents involved in the case. The reexamination process alone was two years.

Not entirely correct. Most likely, IDC is suing Ericsson for patent infringement. This is a two pronged defense for Ericsson. First, Ericsson will alledge that the patent is neither novel nor non-obvious. (Although, the patent was held valid through the re-examination through the US PTO, any art may be used against it)

Secondly, Ericsson will claim that they are not infringing on the patent(s) in question. Therefore, if the patent is not held invalid, then hopefully (for Ericsson's situation) the jury will determine that Ericsson is not infringing and therefore no judgement for the plaintiff (i.e. IDC).

I saw a post on Yahoo which stated that the US PTO found that Ericsson's products were infringing on IDC Patents. That statement was completely untrue.

Let the courts decide. U never know what will happen!

Jim,

A few months ago I made a caustic remark to you on another thread about your investment in IDC. You took the remark personally and let me know that I was rude and obnoxious. When I noticed IDC's recent performance I thought of all the posts you've made on the NOK & QCOM threads about IDC over the years. Your faith has been rewarded!! Congratulations!

Still sorry for being a smartass
Pete
