Thanks. I realize there are a lot of variables, and my assumption may be way off base anyway, but I think you're last paragrah probably answers my quesitons. Realistically, I would not expect us to re-litigate with HTC except in an appeal to the current case.

The bigger picture of my question has to do more with what might happen in a post verdict settlement. If indeed the judgement is applicable only to the products that have been itemized, then the amount of the award would in theory be limited to those products. If that's the case, perhaps, in a global settlement with HTC, the license fee could be more than the court judgement might be, if indeed HTC seeks to license ALL of their products past and future, instead of TECHNICALLY, still being exposed on these other products.

I think my questions are more theoretical than practical, but just wondering and looking ahead with an eye toward a positive verdict, but likely no willful infringement based on the way the jury instructions read, IMO.
