<In any case, I don't see where the USPTO action on the '584 has ANYTHING to do with the Js inclination to SETTLE on the '148 and '336 >
That is what you said, but I do not believe that is what you meant. If you have been reading the thread, why do you come to that conclusion? To me it seems perfectly logical that the Markman results for the 148/336 is going to help us as much as the Markman results for tje 584 hurt us. Optli
