"This is standard nuisance level settlement procedure."

Without a doubt, the tension of the IPR is a tough haul for e.Digital.

Thing is, that tension also exists for Google ....and not just in considering the possibility of positive results for e.Digital in getting its patents gold stamped.

If e.Digital does not get the gold seal of approval by the USPTO.....then the prior art gets the gold seal. The owner of the prior art, for the most part, is MSFT. If this scenario happens what position does that put Google in beholding to MSFT?

Whatever production evolves out of IPR, between prior art and subject challanged patents, both are under IPR scrutiny......With that, it stands to reason that one or the other get a gold seal. An IPR is a final ruling above all as far as the USPTO is concerned.

As far as "nuisance" we'll have to wait for that determination......if it ends up that way...the patent system is over and we might just as well call it a day.

Just keep in mind, Congress killed your investment not e.Digital.
