I agree, but I am more interested in knowing how far back in time we are owed damages for infringement should we win. As one poster pointed out on this board, I believe it was expeditebiz, we may only be able to seek damages as far back as when we first filed the case. Any infringement prior to our filing might not be calculated into the award, as demonstrated in the TiVo vs. Echostar case.

``The jury awarded $73.99 million instead of $87 million because it was not convinced TiVo had done everything it could to promote its patent, which was approved in 2001, according to the jury forewoman. As a result, jurors based damages starting in January 2004, when TiVo filed the lawsuit.``

Either way, a win is a win…which IMO would be beautiful….just don’t want any unreal expectations.
