It does not infringe. The US patent office always checks potentially similar patents before granting one. It also notifies everyone of the pending patent. If there was infringement then onsale would have objected a long time ago and there would have been some type of arbitration or court case. There was none, the patent has been granted and that's the end of that. Don't let people put doubt in your minds. Once a patent is granted, it's granted. Bid.Com owns it and that's the end of the story. I also read in this business wire story that the co-founders of Onsale own the patent personally NOT Onsale. So Onsale shareholders do not get any benefit except the right to licence it. ----------------- SLAM DUNK.
