"My point is that imo I believe other deals have been signed and sealed but not yet released. "

To have them filed away waiting for whenever to pull them out? Well, how about now? LOL.  Sorry, I don't subscribe to that theory. Why not get all the warrants tucked away pronto, and then release some news then? The money's there to wipe'em out. Why wait til October. Throw out 5 signings and let's go I say. Heheh.

"Do you think it was pure coincident that the Nokia signing was anounced May 3, 2007 the day of the Markman hearing?"

I think they wrapped up the deal before the Markman with nothing going on the side. They probably wanted to get it done so any resources would be available for the Markman IMO. Business as usual IMO.

"I believe, imo, that if JT/Patriot confered with TPL about a marketing plan and asked TPL to not anounce a signing or to hold back the anouncement until an agreed upon time, that TPL would be more than willing to oblige. "

What is the benefit to hold back signings? Certainly it's no benefit to the shareholders. Or the 3 1/2 million warrants TPL holds.

 ""TPL gains/loses nothing (nothing for purposes of this discussion)  by issuing press releases.  Patriot Scientific stands to gain the most from new MMP license signings and the press associated with it."

So what is the purpose of TPL announcing signings then?

I'm just not into your style of conspiracy theory. Oh, well.
