I know it doesnt pay to count chickens before they hatch, but dayum - I hope there's enough clear unambiguous prior art out there to blow Acacia out of the water.

Seems to me that if there is enough prior art evidence, and Acacia knew or should have known that they had no valid claim to a patent here, that it could go out of the realm of a civil suit into the realm of criminal law, as attempted extortion.

One can only hope...
