"It appeared to me we are happy banging out settlements and landing some XLA's to sweeten the pot, because the XLA's add value other than hard cash. A blend of both looks like the goal being set."...

If this is the "goal being set" by the company then EDIG is no more than a "patent troll", waiting to cash out as much as they can from the 174+ identified infringers, divide the money among themselves, and walk away from it all smiling their way to their banks...

I disagree with this being the "goal being set" by the company for the following reasons...

1) The NNN'S who have inudated this board, and through identifying themselves with such "Old Timers" like Sunpoop, have shifted the focus to the negative aspects of what came off the shareholder meeting, have managed to get even stall warts like yourself to forget the FACT that the comany has, time and again mentioned their plans for expanding the next generation of eVU into various markets, and the "Monetiztion" efforts are to generate sufficeint bank roll to imlement the growth of the company's business model...

2) Those who have taken the lead in the NNN dialogue here ARE NO SUNPOOP. Sunpoop is a stall wart supporter of this company. Even in his hour of recouping from his hospitalization he was merely stating his frustration with the let-down everyone felt after the SHM, and concluded his remarks that he still blead red for the company...

I urge you, and all other posters here to re-read the detailed reports by those who reported, including yourself, and ignore the $.16 CENT crowd of the NNS who are here spreading their doubts about this company in the best tradition of CASSY and her deciples.

3) FINALLY, (a) EDIG is in the best shape it has been; (b) From here onward, Even if they get $1 million from each defendant, they will have a strong bank account within the next coupls of years to imliment some of their awved plans for market penetration; (c) and no matter what the naysayers do or say, the pps shall be going higher from this point...

Have a nice thanks giving all and be well
