Couldn't agree more Mack. Have long wondered about this myself. Took a quick look, and while many of these players are infinitely more mature and diverse, the order of magnitude vs Poet is really quite astounding.

Between the collective experience of Mssrs Taylor and Manocha, one would hope that they have their bases covered every which way to Sunday, particularly given the good Doctor's statement of ...

When Poet breaks out, I can see the expense involved in the battery of attorneys required to defense against patent infringements potentially dwarfing current total burn rates.
