Per Wolf's PACER from last night, please see below. Are we FINALLY collecting monthly Royalties from the infringing community?
If so, the implications could be HUGE for the shareprice; predictive revenues, guidance, etc.

Plaintiffs blithely refer to Mr. Moore as a “commercial failure” and characterize his
inventions as “bizarre,” suggesting that he is a patent-trolling crackpot. Nothing could be further
from the truth. Over 90 industry leading electronics companies (such as Motorola, General
Electric and Panasonic) have purchased licenses so that they can lawfully use the lessons of the
patents-in-suit. These are not “nuisance value” licenses reached during litigation; these are
significant royalty-bearing licenses recognizing the valuable contributions Mr. Moore made over
the prior art. See In re Rouffet, 149 F.3d 1350, 1355 (Fed. Cir. 1998) (patentability shown by
“licenses showing industry respect for the invention.”)
