<or phrased better, should have been in prior Q's>

Yes that would have been a far clearer way to phrase it. Ongoing operations implies that it is repeatable and ordinary. Which such a one quarter 'catch up' of royalties is certainly not. In fact it was quite misleading in my opinion.

>>Since WHEN was a litigation settlement part of ongoing operations????

>I believe the settlement was related to royalty payments due, and thus it would be a part of ongoing operations.......or phrased better, should have been in prior Q's.

Are you saying they will get this "settlement" every quarter going forward? If so, then it makes sense. Otherwise, I don't buy it.
