Ich glaube die machen sich alle richtig in die Hose (ist doch ne gute Patentmappe- oder?)
Gruß Atila
Aber eine schöne Entwicklung bei PTSC nachdem wir fast ein Jahr durch das Tal der Tränen wandern mußten. Meinetwegen kann das jetzt die nächsten 365 Tage so weiter gehen.
Im anderen Threat ist Berndblase mal wieder gesperrt worden, nachdem er nach Wochen mal wieder nur push-gelabere erzählt hat.
Ich erinnere mich noch dass der von Kursen von 0,20 € (100%ig in 4 Wochen) gesprochen hat.
Es gibt aber echt arme Lichter.
Zum Kern der Sache, was wichtiger ist: Die Entwicklung ist sehr erfreulich und zeigt m.E. das wieder Phantasie in den Wert kommt.
Meine Frage mal an Euch: Angenommen es kommt zum Urteil, das geht positiv aus. Ist ähnlich wie in Deutschland der Rechtsweg in dieser Sache zugelassen, was erhebliche Zeit bedeuten würde ?
Vielleicht gibt es hier ein paar Experten in amerikanischem Recht ?
Ist der Gang der Dinge, dass die ein Urteil in aller Regel anfechten. Aber das ist ganz egal, die Psychologie macht die Musik....
Wichtig ist nur, ein US-Gericht hat zu Gunsten von PTSC entschieden. Damit werden alle möglichen Firmen bei PTSC Schlange stehen um noch eine Lizenz zu bekommen....
Aber so genau weiss ich das nicht mehr, ist ja so viel geschrieben worden über den Prozess.
analog wie in Deutschland besteht natürlich ein Instanzenweg bis zur letzten Bundesinstanz.
euch allen wird die lange Wartezeit, vermutlich mit einem dicken
Geschenk zu Weihnachten, versüßt werden.
Aber ob PTSC evtl. noch ein Verfahren wegen Galeerenschlagzahl an den Hals bekommt ?
so wie die, die Schlagzahl der Bekanntgabe von Liz. verkünden, erinnert das an eine griechische Galeere mit Sklaven ... und der Trommler wird immer schneller ...
:-))
…vor einiger Zeit hat man einen ausländischen Geschäftsmann zu so und soviel Millionen USD Schadenersatz verurteilt, weil sein Sohn in Afghanistan für die Taliban gekämpft hat.
Ja, doch durchaus, sehr rechtsstaatlich: Eltern haften für ihre Kinder.....ganz egal ob die schon volljährig sind!

Santa Barbara, CA — Jim Turley, president and CEO of Patriot Scientific (PTSC) in Carlsbad, CA, says his company is looking for significant embedded systems or microprocessor technology in which to invest. “Our company developed significant intellectual property, which it began licensing to a number of major microprocessor and other embedded-system companies during the 1990s,” he says, “We now have income in the tens of millions of dollars per year to invest in new businesses and technology.”
We should all have such problems!
Actually, it can be a problem for the future. While the company generates great cash flow for a firm with just five employees, international intellectual property laws put them under Damocles’ sword. Patents are issued for 20 years from the filing date, which means PTSC’s current patents expire in less that 10 years.
“We could invest in creating our own R&D infrastructure,” Turley points out, “but it makes more sense to acquire a small, underfunded company with some really good ideas. We can offer them R&D funding and an important place in a public company.”
Turley says that the kind of technology they are looking for is groundbreaking hardware and/or software concepts in the embedded systems and microprocessor space. “We’re looking for something I can understand,” he quips.
Patriot Scientific is an IP licensing company that develops, markets, and enables innovative proprietary technologies. The company’s core IP encompasses fundamental microprocessor design technology for applications such as wireless devices, smart cards, home appliances and gateways, set-top boxes, entertainment technology, automotive telematics, biomedical devices, industrial controllers, aerospace, and others.
The company says they believe that the core microprocessor technology in its patent portfolio appear in virtually every microprocessor manufactured since 1995, and are included in products manufactured and marketed by companies globally.

Matze da müssen wir die Kursziehle von einem USD wohl doch anheben...aber da habe ich gern geirrt.
Grüße Abenteurer
Wir lagen aber alle ziemlich gut bei der Vermutung, dass es eine Einigung geben wird und kein Urteil.
Trotzdem der USD wird sehr schnell fallen, der Flaschenhalseffekt erledigt das fast von selbst.
