Here is my problem with the "Obviousness" question / agrument. If the MMP were so obvious why was it not invented / thought of previously? Somebody must be first..if so obvious why have others "copied" the solution, paid millons of dollars either to obtain a legitimate license or fight it tooth and nail otherwise. The infringers do protest to much me thinks. What hog wash IMO!! A system that can be "gamed" in such a fashion is broken and needs to be re-worked from the ground up. The process as it stands is so un-American it is amazing to me that anybody would have the nerve to invent something and think that they can make money from their invention. Innovative thought should be rewarded not punished!!
