EDIG is suing these current companies for the "Record & Playback" on "removable flash memory patents." These bigger numbers EDIG feels, along with DM is the infringement of EDIG's "Flash file system and micro os" which manages flash in a more efficient fashion and is being used in popular devices that is growing rapidly. the micro os is robust and can handle an unlimited amount of files. Simply put, the more a manufacturer wants a handheld device to do, the more valuable EDIG's micro os is. Obviously, phones today can do everything but the dishes and I hear that model is coming next year. Hope this helps. mguru
