I was at the SHM last year, and I can concur with other posters who were either there or others stating what they heard, that during PN's presentation, mentioning making "calls" on possible infringers, about 5 or so/month, leading up to the 7 being filed on in Mar-2008, and apparently based on what was said that day, RP was at many of these meetings.
The ground work was laid before the 1st 7 were filed upon, letters went out stating DM/EDIG's intent to file etc. I cannot buy that the next round have not been notified at this point...no way IMO.
I'm no legal guy, but based on what was said 9/17/08, all ducks were in a row for the 1st 7, and we know 6 of 7 results as we speak, and future filings were well thought out and DM would consult with EDIG, then decide the timing of what we call, round two.
These do not seem to me to be difficult cases to prove, should they make it all the way to a judges decision, or a jury trial, and so far, all 7 settling with no jury.
IMO, the next round will fall much faster than the 1st 7, if it even gets that far on behalf of the current owners of the patents...if you capiche...I am still in that camp.
