Derek, does this statement from ROK President Decker make any sense to you?

"We believe that litigation of this sort is yet another unfortunate consequence in the deployment and approval of a global 56K-bps modem standard."

It doesn't make any sense to me. It might make sense if the words "delay of" were inserted between "the" and "deployment".

At any rate, I'm wondering why a contractual dispute between ROK and one of their customers has anything to do with the ITU hammering out a standard? The connection escapes me.

If they get enough lawsuits going on, it will bog down their e-mail & faxes so much...they'll demand a 56K standard to speed things up. We all know the lawyers will drag this out forever. <G>

I don't see how the ROK lawsuit against Bay or the Bay counter suit should slow the standards. The Townshend suit is another matter though.
