What a blast from the past Vicki. I have the feeling that the group fighting this patent have had prior art findings for a while now. I used to be in on the mailings. They have to go to court to show their cards.

What comes to mind is "so you find prior art how hard is it for acacia to patent it". I know they bought existing patents, would this olevetti company hold a patent and either sell to "a-ca-ca" or say "heh good gig they got going on maybe we should try it".

Well thinking postitively... I hope the judges are smart cookies that can be taught... cause I doubt that they will get a judge that owns a computer let alone is a tech head.
