werden bekanntlich an der Börse auch gehandelt, nicht ausschliesslich die Realität, die konkrete Substanz einer Firma. Was heisst das nun für PTSC, nach dem gestrigen Kursanstieg von 14.81 %, von dem hier niemand genau sagen kann, weshalb er erfolgte.
Der Gründe gibt es einige wie z.B.;
- dass nach dem Abschluss mit Philipps der Kurs nur sehr moderat im Plus reagierte,
- dass die enge Geschäftsbeziehung zwischen Philips und Toshiba nicht zu übersehen ist, also warum sollte Philips lizensieren und Toshiba weiter prozessieren ?
- dass gestern wie gesagt ohne erkennbaren Grund - oder aber beflügelt von obgenannter Erkenntnis - PTSC mit fast 14,8 aus heiterem Himmel plötzlich 14,8 % im Plus ist ,
- dass auch ein möglicher Grund ist, man realisierte endlich was es wirklich bedeutet, dass die Parteien in Texas beantragten den Prozeß für 30 Tage auszusetzen,
- dass es nämlich eine 80 % Wahrscheinlichkeit beinhaltet, dass die sich nun doch noch sehr schnell aussergerichtlich vergleichen & einigen,
- dass dabei Abschlüsse in bisher nicht gekannter Höhe zur Disposition stehen,
dürfte auch nicht beidseitig immerzu 100 % geheimzuhalten sein,
- dass sickert so eine Abschlusssumme als Gerücht verpackt im Ring durch, ganz bewusst "der Meute zum Frass" vorgeworfen, schiessen folglich die Kurse wohlweislich noch oben,
- dass jetzt schlussendlich nur von interesse ist, dass die nächsten 30 Tagen jederzeit mit einer Einigungsmeldung gerechnet werden darf, resp. muss,
- dass dies konkret heisst,
- die Shorties "müssen",
- die Longhies "dürfen" jederzeit damit rechnen .
- dies macht den kleinen Unterschied

PHILIPS AND TSMC ANNOUNCE JOINT PLAN TO FACILITATE ORDERLY EXIT BY PHILIPS FROM TSMC SHAREHOLDING
Issued by: Philips and TSMC
Issued on: 2007/03/09
Amsterdam, The Netherlands and Hsinchu, Taiwan – Royal Philips Electronics (NYSE:PHG, AEX:PHI) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd (TAIEX: 2330, NYSE: TSM) today jointly announced that the companies have agreed to a multi-phased plan to facilitate an orderly exit by Philips from its current shareholding in TSMC as follows:
1. Philips intends to sell in the near future up to USD 1.75 billion worth of TSMC shares to accommodate identified demand from long-term financial investors in Taiwan. To this end, an application has been filed today with the Taiwan Stock Exchange by Philips.
2. Philips intends to offer up to USD 2.5 billion worth of TSMC shares, in the form of American Depositary shares, through a public offering in the United States without over-allotment option. The ADSs sold in this offering are expected to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. This offering would follow a TSMC board resolution to approve the conversion of TSMC common shares into American Depository Shares on behalf of Philips. Each ADS represents five TSMC common shares. This transaction is subject to all regulatory approvals, including registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and is, subject to market conditions, expected to be completed in 2007. It is the intention of TSMC and Philips that no further ADS offerings will be conducted in respect of Philips’ shareholding in TSMC.
3. TSMC plans to conduct a share repurchase via tender offer in 2007 on the Taiwan Stock Exchange to buy back up to approximately USD 1.5 billion worth of shares in TSMC, and cancel the repurchased shares, subject to TSMC board approval. Philips intends to participate in the share repurchase, and Philips’ representative on the TSMC Board of Directors today resigned as a director. Philips will no longer maintain any board position at TSMC.
4. TSMC intends to conduct additional share repurchase programs between 2008 and 2010, subject to maintaining its current annual cash dividend per share and cancel the repurchased shares. Philips intends to participate in these share repurchase programs with its remaining TSMC shares. Philips will also consider other sales to long-term financial investors mutually agreeable to Philips and TSMC.
Philips currently owns 16.2% of TSMC share capital, with a current market valuation of approximately USD 8.5 billion.

Portfolio Media, New York (November 2, 2007)--A patent infringement lawsuit against Matsushita Electrical Industrial Co., Panasonic Corp. of North America and JVC Americas Corp. over microprocessor patents has been stayed for a month, suggesting that advanced settlement talks in the case might be under way.
Judge T. John Ward of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas granted the joint motion for the stay on Thursday for 30 days in patent-holding company Technology Properties Ltd.'s suit which also accuses NEC Electronics America Inc. and Toshiba Corp. of infringement.
A reason for the motion was not given in court papers and attorneys involved in the case did not immediately return calls seeking comment on Friday.
Documents
Ruling
[PDF]
Tom Rigoli, a spokesman for TPL, said he could not discuss why the stay was needed because of a confidentiality agreement between the parties. He did say, however, that the companies were continuing discussions on the claims.
TPL and its partner Patriot Scientific Corp. claim that the patents-in-suit protect fundamental technology in designing microprocessors, microcontrollers and embedded processors.
TPL is appealing a claim construction order for one of the three patents which has been thrown out of the suit. The patent-holding company had agreed to a judgment of noninfringement on the patent to “simplify and streamline” a trial scheduled in the case for January 2008. TPL also said it stipulated to the non-infringement order so that it could immediately appeal a Markman ruling regarding the third patent.
Fujitsu Ltd., Sony Corp., NEC Corp. and some of their respective subsidiaries were also named as defendants, but reached settlements during the course of the case. However, NEC Electronics America did not settle.
The patent dispute dates back to October 2003, when Patriot filed a suit in the Northern District of California against the group, alleging infringement of three patents that cover high-performance microprocessors with variable speed system clocks and the fundamental techniques for designing them.
The patents were originally issued to Patriot, but TPL claimed rightful ownership, insisting one of its inventors should have been named as co-inventor of the technology. The disagreement prompted Patriot to sue TPL in February 2004.
TPL offered Patriot $7.5 million for the portfolio, an offer that was declined based on Patriot's estimated worth of the portfolio at $1 billion. By June 2005 Patriot dropped its complaint against TPL and entered into an agreement to jointly control the patents.
TPL then sued the Japanese electronics makers, seeking injunctive relief and increased damages for willful infringement, in the Eastern District of Texas. TPL alleged that the patents covered microprocessors with clocks faster than 110-MHz to 120-MHz, which applies to a great number of computers in use today. While the patent describes the invention, it does not actually contain the phrases “110-MHz” or “120-MHz.”
“The cited infringement pertains to a wide variety of end-user products including personal computers, servers, workstations, home theater systems, digital TVs, video games, DVD Recorders/Players, mobile handsets and automotive electronics,” TPL said.
The defendants alleged that the patents were invalid due to double-patenting and that one of the patents should be barred from litigation under the doctrine of res judicata.
“A judicial declaration as to whether the claims of the patents-in-suit are invalid … is necessary and appropriate at this time so that plaintiffs can ascertain their rights and duties with respect to designing, developing, marketing and selling their products,” NEC said.
In June Toshiba told the court it had reached a resolution with the holding company that partially dismissed it from the suit, saying its Application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) products, including the TC200, TC220, TC240, TC260, TC280 and TC300, would no longer be part of the case.
An ASIC chip is custom-designed for a specific application. Other microprocessor chips owned by Toshiba remain part of the suit.
Since January 2006, TPL said companies such as Hewlett-Packard Co., Sony Corp., and Sharp Corp. have purchased licenses for the patents-in-suit.
The patents in question are U.S. Patent Numbers 5,809,336; 6,598,148 and 5,784,584.
Technology Properties Limited is represented by Townsend and Townsend and Crew LLP, Brown McCarroll LLP and Ireland Carroll & Kelley PC.
The case is Technology Properties Limited Inc. v. Matsushita Electrical Industrial Co. Ltd. et al., case number 05-cv-00494, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.

To All Friends of Patriot Scientific Corporation-
The summer months were turbulent ones for Patriot Scientific Corporation. We welcomed four new licensees but the fires in San Diego County disrupted and dislocated our staff. We held our regular shareholders' meeting and saw our long-term PR outreach efforts start to pay off.
Our annual shareholders' meeting was in late October, as you know, amid trying circumstances. Considering the wildfires burning all around our offices and nearby cities we'd considered postponing the meeting but felt that wouldn't be fair to the shareholders who'd already begun their travel. In the end about 30-40 hardy shareholders attended, and we're thankful to them. Thanks also to those who sent us their support and best wishes. Two members of our staff had to evacuate their homes the night before the shareholders' meeting, as did my own son and a close family member of one of our directors. The rest of us kept suitcases and boxes of valuables ready by the front door. By the end of the week most of the danger had passed and we've all since been allowed back into our homes. We'd expected a larger crowd for the shareholders' luncheon, so Patriot donated the excess food to a local evacuation center.
A quick note regarding the timing of the shareholders' meeting: It's been only six months since the last "annual" meeting but that's because we've been off-schedule for the past few years. October is the more traditional time for a company on our fiscal calendar as it falls shortly after the close of the fiscal year. I anticipate that our annual meetings will be held in the fall from now on.
Cohen Independent Research has initiated coverage of Patriot Scientific. The Cohen report is impressively researched - it's 140 pages long - and we're pleased to say that their initial recommendation is Strong Buy. Cohen agrees that our intellectual-property holdings are valuable and have a large potential market.
Our coverage in the business press is also growing. In the past few weeks Patriot Scientific has been featured in Electronic Business (twice), the San Diego Business Journal, the Wall Street Transcript, and WallSt.net (twice). An article in Industry Week is due out soon.
Patriot Scientific was named to the "Fast 500" list of fastest-growing technology companies in America. We ranked #63 nationwide (beating out companies like Google, TiVo, and Salesforce.com) and #4 in the San Diego area. It's yet one more acknowledgement of Patriot's rapid growth and potential.
Speaking of potential, I've said many times that Patriot is actively seeking to develop a second revenue stream. I want that business to be predictable, product-based, and profitable. Well, we're making good progress on that front. Throughout the summer months I've been meeting with several high-tech companies and, with our CFO and members of the board of directors, we've evaluated more than 30 different companies in different industries from small 3-person startups to established firms with over 100 employees. A few of the meetings were brief; others progressed quite well and we've started a second phase of deeper discussions with some of the better candidates. We're being very thorough in our evaluation, involving each of our board members in turn and tapping outside advisors when that's appropriate. Overall I'm very excited about the prospects for expanding Patriot and broadening our opportunities. I'll be sure to share progress reports as we move along.
In October we welcomed Dutch electronics giant Philips into our list of patent licensees. Philips manufactures everything from televisions to home appliances and medical equipment. It's great to see such a big name join our group.
Also in October Schneider Electric became our first "double licensee" after it acquired another company, American Power Conversion (APC). Since APC didn't have a license to our patent portfolio Schneider expanded its license to include APC's products.
With best regards;
-Jim Turley

Current status (long post --- sorry)...
Posted by: ronran on November 04, 2007 11:32PM
im Auszug:
"As you will recall, I have long said that the case would likely settle (although I would not have expected a formal stay order), and that the probable time for such to occur would be the last 30 - 60 days prior to trial — frankly, I thought the time period just prior to Christmas was more likely, merely on a "get as close to the steps of the courthouse as is safely possible" basis, but I am certainly happy that the time frame appears to be earlier. My "prediction" on this, by the way, is certainly no indication that I am some kind of soothsayer — it is easy to be "right" when one merely predicts the likely, so there are certainly no kudos for me on this one. Still, it is good to see that the current scenario has gone according to expectation — if it had not, I would have been somewhat concerned.
Based on everything I have been able to gather, the stay does indeed appear to be for the purpose of voluntary settlement discussions. The lawyers would not have agreed to forfeit valuable time necessary for trial preparation (due to the stay, they cannot enforce any formal deadlines in the Scheduling Order, nor force opponents to comply with other federal rules applicable to the case) under any other circumstances that I can imagine. I cannot stress strongly enough that this stay is not likely a "delay tactic", but rather operates in the opposite manner. To effectively "compress" preparation time for a trial of this magnitude by cutting the available time roughly in half, and to do so immediately prior to the trial date itself, would add immeasurable stress on both the parties and the attorneys, under conditions which were already extremely stressful to begin with. I must say that I have never seen such a stay requested before, and after doing some research and talking to various people with more experience than I, the "settlement scenario" is the only conclusion that seems reasonable — I surely would not want to be any of the lawyers who request another continuance of the case from Judge Ward if the current stay does not result in settlement.
From what I can surmise, there has been no ruling by the PTO, and no ruling or indication (formal or informal) from Judge Ward on the Higgins/Shaw issue. Of course, we may never really know all of the background as to the latter, but at this juncture, speculation is useless. The point is that, in all likelihood and barring some very unusual developments that none of us can truly predict, the case appears headed toward settlement on an expedited basis, perhaps within the next couple of weeks — unless those dastardly lawyers [you know how those guys can be :):):)] wait until the final day.
Could there be a monkey wrench thrown somewhere in this scenario? Of course, because, as I have said many times, nothing is certain in litigation. I strongly doubt that we will see a ruling from Judge Ward (while he can do whatever he wants because he’s the Judge, the case is formally stayed now), but the PTO could indeed rule, or there could be contingencies that occur of which we cannot fathom because none of us, including me, are patent lawyers. However, it would appear that, at this point, such things would actually be additional incentives to get the settlement done as quickly as is humanly possible, because a negative ruling on any significant issue might well "gut" whomever is on the receiving end.
In terms of other possible negatives, I would respectfully disagree with those who feel that prior art/obviousness is no longer an issue. I am not by any means suggesting that we should be unduly concerned, but conversely, it is inaccurate IMO to say that this is a non-issue. The KSR decision is alive and well, and has been a considerable weapon for defendants in other reported appellate decisions over the last several months. I could say much more about this, but I wouldn’t want to be seen as a party-pooper, and, in fact, that’s not the way I feel about it. I am simply saying, as I have since this issue was first raised many months ago, that the J3 will never give up on this defense until, if ever, the gavel has dropped against them — it is too valuable as a tool in settlement negotiations. Unfortunately (or, fortunately, depending on how one looks at it), this is one of those "all or nothing" issues — if you wait for the result and you lose, it’s pretty much "game over". And that is precisely what increases the likelihood of settlement — in other words, we needn’t worry too much about the KSR issue right now IMO, because the likelihood is that it will never get to the courthouse in this particular case.
Nevertheless, I see the current settlement talks as being a kind of "more taste — no, less filling!" scenario, in which TPL/PTSC are forcefully asserting infringement based on the Markman ruling, while the J3 are screaming about KSR. The Higgins/Shaw issue, while not unimportant, is likely not a "deal breaker" or "case maker" kind of thing one way or the other IMO, and if that is accurate, then the main points of contention continue to be basics, i.e., good ole "infringement versus invalidity" — and the lawyers will beat each others’ brains out with various arguments based on those issues until "the dollars get right".
In view of the above, it appears very likely that settlement is on the horizon — therefore, my main interest is directed more toward the amount of settlement and to whether that amount will be contemporaneously announced. I saw some headlines here a couple of weeks ago dealing with whether a settlement would be a "material event", but whether it is or not, I seriously doubt that the amount will be publicized until the next SEC filing is due — the simple fact of life here is that most multinational corporations will not, under any circumstances, settle a large case without a confidentiality clause. As I have said many times, I would fight against that if I was Dan Leckrone, because the next guys in line will be more afraid if they know what the last ones paid (a la the recent TMTA/Intel settlement) — however, I doubt that Mr. Leckrone is much into changing his mind about anything."

Konsequenz aus seinen Überlegungen: Auch wenn ein Vergleich kommt, kennt zunächst niemand die Zahlen - und der Kurs muß mit dieser Unsicherheit weiterleben.
Die Einigung macht den Weg frei für eine Vielzahl von Lizenznehmern, die sicher nicht mehr versuchen werden zu klagen.
Der Kurs zieht in den letzten Tagen an, ein Zeichen das sich viele noch eindecken wollen vor dem Ausbruch.
Ich wage mal kein Kursziel am ersten Tag der Meldung, aber eine 1 vor dem Komma wäre o.k.
die kursbewegung, jetzt gerade in den staaten, spricht für gestiegene phantasie.
ich habe mich schon seit 2 jahren eingedeckt und kann jetzt beruhigt warten, wie sich alles entwickelt.

Below is a copy of the latest open letter from Jim Turley, President and CEO of Patriot Scientific to the companys shareholders. In this direct communication to the companys investors, Jim provides an update on Patriots activities in the past few months including an update on the slew of new licensing agreements, highlights from the annual shareholders meeting, and the companys growth plans.
Jim also talks about coverage initiation of PTSC by Cohen Independent Research and Patriot being recognized by Deloitte and Touche as the one of the fastest growing companies in the country in terms of revenue growth.
For those who were unable to attend Patriots shareholders meeting on October 23, this letter is a good summary of the company highlights that were discussed during the event.
November 2, 2007
To All Friends of Patriot Scientific Corporation
The summer months were turbulent ones for Patriot Scientific Corporation. We welcomed four new licensees but the fires in San Diego County disrupted and dislocated our staff. We held our regular shareholders meeting and saw our long-term PR outreach efforts start to pay off.
n Our annual shareholders meeting was in late October, as you know, amid trying circumstances. Considering the wildfires burning all around our offices and nearby cities wed considered postponing the meeting but felt that wouldnt be fair to the shareholders whod already begun their travel. In the end about 3040 hardy shareholders attended, and were thankful to them. Thanks also to those who sent us their support and best wishes. Two members of our staff had to evacuate their homes the night before the shareholders meeting, as did my own son and a close family member of one of our directors. The rest of us kept suitcases and boxes of valuables ready by the front door. By the end of the week most of the danger had passed and weve all since been allowed back into our homes. Wed expected a larger crowd for the shareholders luncheon, so Patriot donated the excess food to a local evacuation center.
n A quick note regarding the timing of the shareholders meeting: Its been only six months since the last annual meeting but thats because weve been off-schedule for the past few years. October is the more traditional time for a company on our fiscal calendar as it falls shortly after the close of the fiscal year. I anticipate that our annual meetings will be held in the fall from now on.
n Cohen Independent Research has initiated coverage of Patriot Scientific. The Cohen report is impressively researched its 140 pages long and were pleased to say that their initial recommendation is Strong Buy. Cohen agrees that our intellectual-property holdings are valuable and have a large potential market.
n Our coverage in the business press is also growing. In the past few weeks Patriot Scientific has been featured in Electronic Business (twice), the San Diego Business Journal, the Wall Street Transcript, and WallSt.net (twice). An article in Industry Week is due out soon.
n Patriot Scientific was named to the Fast 500 list of fastest-growing technology companies in America. We ranked #63 nationwide (beating out companies like Google, TiVo, and Salesforce.com) and #4 in the San Diego area. Its yet one more acknowledgement of Patriots rapid growth and potential.
n Speaking of potential, Ive said many times that Patriot is actively seeking to develop a second revenue stream. I want that business to be predictable, product-based, and profitable. Well, were making good progress on that front. Throughout the summer months Ive been meeting with several high-tech companies and, with our CFO and members of the board of directors, weve evaluated more than 30 different companies in different industries from small 3-person startups to established firms with over 100 employees. A few of the meetings were brief; others progressed quite well and weve started a second phase of deeper discussions with some of the better candidates. Were being very thorough in our evaluation, involving each of our board members in turn and tapping outside advisors when thats appropriate. Overall Im very excited about the prospects for expanding Patriot and broadening our opportunities. Ill be sure to share progress reports as we move along.
n In October we welcomed Dutch electronics giant Philips into our list of patent licensees. Philips manufactures everything from televisions to home appliances and medical equipment. Its great to see such a big name join our group.
n Also in October Schneider Electric became our first double licensee after it acquired another company, American Power Conversion (APC). Since APC didnt have a license to our patent portfolio Schneider expanded its license to include APCs products.
With best regards;
Jim Turley
