Take this a couple of steps ahead:
I can see a case where a group of companies band together and buy the MMP portfolio outright.
Let's say that the ITC complaints are upheld, and huge disruptions in product sales occur - everything from computers, phones, tv's, etc.
This particular scenario is played out over and over again because of this, pardon my term, "patent on water."
In the end, it is in the best interest in all manufacturers of electronic gadgets simply put to rest the MMP "problem" by buying it and making it an "open license" in perpetuity. It simply becomes that Moore and Fish are forever memorialized as revolutionaries in the computer industry with their remarkable inventions and methods to modernize microprocessors.
Questions: At what cost to industry does this happen? Is this the true potential value of the MMP? How would that affect the shareprice?
