i hope more technology patent trolling gets slapped down. oracle's frivolous suit against google over java APIs resulted in oracle getting... precisely nothing.
this is a good trend. companies have been doing too much patent litigation.
now i am betting apple will lose its suit against android makers as well.
i liked posner's rude comments about 'without merit' and 'dismissed with prejudice' -- that last means they cannot reopen the case.
actually, i just realized that motorola started this thing by suing apple, not vice versa. i had thought it was apple, combative and pugnacious that it is, who had done this.
hmmmm... so does this mean google wasted $10 billion in buying motorola for its patents?
