They are either desperate, unlucky or attempting to shake out some weak hands.

We have another settlement in the books and are one day closer to the judge's ruling on the Markman.

The only negative I can see is that if someone had a heads up to the judge's ruling, in advance, and was exitiing prior. However, it that were the case, why the settlement announcement?

And keep in mind, we are looking at only about $50K in dollar volume.

All insignificant to positioned, long term investors, as we await the Markman and then move further down the road to more settlements and a new round of infringers.
