From EDIG on 08-04-10
“We recently received our first periodic royalty payment from one of the two companies that have entered into on-going royalty agreements.”
AND,
“We are very encouraged with all our IP developments and look forward to providing further information about them in future Company communications,” concluded Falk. “We also look forward to the January Markman hearing and enforcement activity that will precede it.”
Looking back to 11-16-09,
Falk concluded, “We have also been approached regarding licensing terms apart from current litigation efforts as a result of our early licensing success.

It would be nice to see royalty bearing agreements continue to grow as a source for ongoing revenues, especially with some of the larger companies.
Also, they are not saying they "expect" enforcement activity, but rather that it will PRECEDE the Markman hearing.
Sounds like round 3 might be on the way, or perhaps companies coming to EDIG that have yet to be served in an attempt to avoid legal wranglings.
OR, something completely off our current radar.
