and without any exception they all express a positive perception as to the outcome of this phase of the trial. Yet, at this stage it is really very premature to make this prediction and it is even more premature to expect and demand that Fred issues a PR. One reason is that the defedant attorneys have invoked the issue of Laches. I saw the responces of this board regarding this issue as well all the arguments about it. I also know that this argument is very rarely used by the Court. But there conservative and liberal judges of various degrees and we do not know the inclinations of our judge. Now suppose our judge is very conservative. It is not incoceivable that he was inclined to issue a decision favoring this motion and he might have issued a decision to this effect. He can do so before the trial and let the parties know about it. He has to write about it soon and if so, it will in the pacer. The arguments provided here are all inadequate. Indeed, Edig, without any expenses or trivial expenses, could have written and sent a letter to Apple to the effect "you guys have violated our patent". That action would have prevented the argument of laches. Alternatively, Handal might have changed his startegy. I can advance many many arguments why things might be different than the perceptions expressed in our board and Fred, at this point does not, in fact, cannot issue any PR. My suggestion is relax and pray a lot I do.
