Trillium (Larry)... Yep, that's something to consider.  I'm not sure how they would handle that.  Here's hoping they would settle Sanyo first....then try to settle with Panasonic for a much larger agreement.  Or, combine the two for a much larger sum.  Whatever the case, it brings a smile to my face just thinking about it.
Of course, Panasonic is much larger company than Sanyo and I would hope a much larger settlement would be in order.
