Not to start a thread of wild speculation, but I have continued to wonder why Samsung got a 30 day extention to "take care of obligations" before the settlement was completed.

The Samsung settlement was announced by EDIG 10/22/09.

Then there is this from the 12/15/10 PR...

“Our EDIG division is already developing several new technologies and we have claimed rights in the areas of communication networks and digital data distribution,” added Falk. “Through EDIG, we expect to develop these and other emergent technologies, secure rights to the technologies and develop strategic relationships with partners who have the resources and infrastructure to leverage EDIG technologies in significant consumer markets.”
