This is why it’s very important to read the filings. Hudnell just filed an excellent response to block Verizon’s nonsense that could have an effect on the jury, They’re trying hard to exclude anything VPLM’s witness has to offer. As well, as cause prejudice.
IMHO
Last Amazon court filing was February 8th. Hmmmmm….Still no trial date.
IMHO
Agreed
For the Verizon trial to remain in August, Albright needs to deny the pending motion to exclude Salk, VPLM’s expert damages witness. If this holds true, the other pending witness motions are a moot point.
Hudnell was smart he went into a dissertation on what’s entailed with bringing in a new witness, aka, timeline, discovery and Daubert challenges, as well as continuance in the T-Mobile trial, as VPLM is also seeking to substitute Salk, for a new witness in that case.
When all is considered, more likely Albright denies the pending motion to exclude VPLM’s current expert testimony of Salk and the trial remains as planned. IMHO
This is why the filings are very important.
IMHO
Please read the filing and you’ll notice the new witness isn’t available until the week after the August trial. Therefore, Hudnell is asking for a continuance, possibly after the November trial. This is the paragraph before “conclusion”. Thus, causing a “possible” delay.
Now, with the additional motions filed yesterday by both defendants, they’re now opposing this substitute damages witness. Who knows what Albright will decide to do.
The filings are very telling, especially when they’re a day old. The finish line could possibly be delayed and the urgency to settle, as well.
But, if an acquisition is imminent, then this is all a moot point. lol
IMHO
Glad you noticed I said “possibly”. It’ll be explained more in not just one filing but there’s now a few. It’s interesting.
IMHO I don’t believe the motion (s) will be decided until the pretrial.
Please read the filing (s)…HouseFire. It’ll be explained there.
Actually there’re a few.
IMHO
This is crazy, Verizon trial could possibly be delayed until after the T-Mobile trial in November …Damage expert witness is being disputed by Verizon. Availability of new witness could be the cause.
2025?
This is why one must follow the filings!!
IMHO
🛻🛻🛻…Beep…Beep….I noticed your long post the other day, chose not to even read it. I glanced and scrolled down and it was too long winded to spend any time or energy reading it. Although I’m sure there’s enough material to copy and paste that I could make a collage of your quotes and statements from other posts, that would be more embarrassing than any clerical error I’ve ever made.
You contact shareholders to attack me. You call them yelling and screaming and even left a nasty voice message so a shareholder’s wife could hear. Your rants of anger are toxic, pretentious, lack substance, disrespectful and are all over the place. They have gotten way out of hand. It’s very disturbing, something’s just not right with you. IMHO
What’s astonishing, I would think if you did have any friends, someone would tell you to stop with your nonsense.
I was going to come back and go low, real low, on a personal level but, I decided not to.
To be truthful, I’m laughing most of the time when I’m writing my posts. The banter is all in fun and not meant any harm. It appears you’re too thin skinned to take any rebuttals. I find it hilarious because you invite the backlash. But, to be honest, it’s gotten old, real old.
In the neighborhood I grew up in, you either stand up for yourself or you get crushed. When I get disrespected, I defend myself. If you and your minions don’t like it, too freaking bad. Don’t disrespect others and you won’t be disrespected back. Better yet, don’t read my posts. I certainly don’t intend on reading any more of yours. It’s a simple concept, I’m sure most would agree.
If I didn’t know you chose to live in your car and it wasn’t out of necessity, I certainly wouldn’t have joked about it.
I understand you’re waiting for VPLM to come to fruition, before getting a place. I really hope VPLM works out for both of us. Maybe you can get a nice 38’ RV to live in or a place of your own. This certainly should help with your low self esteem.
Although I understand you may have been a successful stockbroker. But, you live in a completely different reality where court filings, media articles, and SEC filings really don’t matter. You’d rather rely on your feelings, vibes, and Rich’s tone of voice to seek comfort, encouragement and enthusiasm, for not only yourself but, for your minions. This speaks volumes.
Your opinions on how this might play out, are different than mine. I get it, shareholders with restricted shares want an acquisition prior to the trial date, for obvious reasons. aka, cost and hassle depositing shares and a stock swap without having to sell and pay taxes immediately. Understood.
I’d love to see an acquisition but, only at a fair and reasonable price. I believe after the recent favorable ex parte reexamination and Alice Motion decisions, VPLM’s value has gone up. You should at least agree with me on this.
I feel VPLM’s going to trial and there’ll be a favorable VPLM verdict. If this holds true, the PPS should appreciate much higher than any anticipated acquisition price. This way, the actual damages would be made public. If this settles prior to trial, without an acquisition, there’s no telling if the damages will be announced. Then it might be perceived, just like the others. I believe a trial verdict is needed, prior to any acquisition. IMHO
The bottom line, none of us have any control on what the outcome will be. These are just our opinions.
We all know what it means when one does the same thing, over and over again and gets the same results. Therefore, after serious consideration, I’ve decided to take the high road and be the better man. This has taken on a life of its own. We can agree to disagree on numerous topics.
I’ve made my statements, ad nauseam with rebuttals back to you and a few others. If one can’t comprehend and or process things, it’s a “you” problem, not a “me” problem. I’d just refer to my previous posts, you can be schooled there.
This board has limited information of any substance. There’s only a small group of people that pay attention to it anyway. Your minions pander to your every whim, it’s nauseating. Especially, when you know nothing, that’s not in the court filings. PERIOD
I’m not sure who appointed you VPLM’s spokesman but, they did a lousy job. Most information can be found in the court documents and filings.
I don’t care to read any more of your posts, as well as a few others. There’s really nothing gained from it. You’re a pathetic excuse for a man. It’s time to distance myself from you. Who knows what you’re liable to do. IMHO
ENOUGH SAID!!!
Good luck and I wish you well.
MIC DROP
🛻🛻🛻…Beep…Beep..Bye-bye
LMAO
Thank you for your post, as well as the one last night. I wasn’t sure which post you were referring to. I’m assuming it’s this one. I believe I may have missed this one, yesterday . I’m glad there’re some that are understanding when someone makes a clerical error, especially when it’s been corrected. This shows me you have good character.
I really appreciate your opinion on this.
Thank you for your service.
IMHO
Talk about being public record! Are you kidding me, right now? You’ve dug yourself a big hole that you’ll need an expensive ladder to dig yourself out of.
You’ve gone on record numerous times, accusing a few individuals that they’re crooks, without remorse I might add. For a long time now. I’ll reference your post # 129836. You certainly haven’t proven VPLM’s a scam and or these individuals are crooks. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!
If anyone’s stupid and ignorant is someone who can’t comprehend and process my correction with post #129996. I’ve already gone on record with my correction, numerous times.
I’ll always stand up for myself, as well for a friend I’ve known for well over ten years. I won’t be disrespected or bullied by anyone on this board, especially you.
You put yourself in this position, not I.
“What gets us into trouble is not what we don’t know. It’s what we know for sure that just ain’t so.”….Mark Twain ……….LMAO
IMHO
Did you get a call, text or email to attack me? You’re kidding me right now. Really, you post your disenchantment over posts of bitching back and forth among others, then you post a compliment to the very person who is responsible for instigating the animosity when he doesn’t agree with their opinion (s). UNBELIEVABLE!! WOW!
It was posted somewhere, that why would any IR guy spend hours a week talking to some shareholder, who’s a homeless, failed stockbroker? I alway thought your buddy was a successful stockbroker, from what he’s stated on this board.
It’s quoted, “Do the filings give any idea as to the work the VPLM team is putting in right now??? Huhhhhh, well yea they do. By reading the filings, one views the accomplishments Hudnell and the “team” has put into the favorable decisions. Hmmmm, is this a trick question? We all know the VPLM team is putting in hard work, JUST READ THE FILINGS! LMAO
Who was the one that called the company and cried and complained about all the insider selling and dilution. Then crying he’s going to sell all his shares. Then comes on here and instigates arguments defending it.
Nah, I’ve already posted a correction on post # 129996. It was an honest mistake, that I corrected. I didn’t write the article. But, by continuing to try and demean me and make fun of an honest mistake is laughable. This shows lack of character and self worth. Obviously, your buddy isn’t a happy person, hates his life and sees himself as a loser. That’s why he chooses to live in his car. The only way he can feel good about himself is by being cantankerous and try to prove he’s knows things others don’t. Thus, attacking others that don’t agree with him. Very sad, if you ask me. If he did in fact have any friends, I would think they would say something to him.
I certainly haven’t seen him stand up to the individual that has slandered our friend Rich. Which I find very interesting.
I will alway stand up to disrespectful bullies like him.
IMHO
Nah, nice try thou. No article regarding a former associate implicates anyone as a criminal and or crook. As well, as there’s no proof VPLM is a scam. You’re going to need a lot more proof than that.
Please go back and read post # 129996. There you should be able to read my corrected post. Most people, even a 5th grader would be able to process and comprehend the point I was making. Continuing to try and make fun of an honest corrected mistake, clearly shows your weakness and ignorance, because every one of your posts lacks substance. You’re the one that should be embarrassed, not I.
The only difference between my mistake and yours, is mine didn’t cost me a penny to make it right. As with your slandering, from what I’ve heard, is going to cost you a pretty penny. It appears it’s about time someone taught you a lesson, your father never did…….LMAO. IMHO
Your Mark Twain quote is quite apropos.
“What gets us into trouble is not what we don’t know. It’s what we know for sure that just ain’t so.”
MIC DROP
Rich is an honorable man and a great guy. He’s not only a tremendous family man and father, he’s honest and is very active in his church.
You can disrespect an alias on this board all you want but, when you name someone and slander them, you’ve crossed the line. Your disrespectful character assassination towards him, is without merit. It’s completely uncalled for and extremely damaging to his image.
It’s one thing bantering back and forth with others on this board. Heck, I respond back only to an alias that attacks me first. And I’m laughing while I type my response(s). It’s all in fun and I find it hilarious. I will always stand up to bullies. BUT, when you falsely accuse and slander someone who has a public image representing VPLM, you’ve put yourself in a precarious position. Be prepared for what’s ahead for you. Just a heads up.
This board is meant for us to voice our opinions towards VPLM. If you can’t understand someone might have a different opinion than you, misspoke, made an incorrect statement based on information they’ve been told, or even a honest typo, then this is a “you problem, not a me problem”. It comes from your weak character as a person and inability of comprehending and processing material.
IMHO
Most of your posts are crap. Not to mention, your whole life seems to be a mistake. You post nothing of any substance, only meaningless information. Possibly a paid basher.
Even a 5th Grader would know, the filings are about the only way shareholders have to receive information.
As I’ve stated, you might want to go back and read my post # 129996, as well as post # 130005.
Most smart people understand the point I was making and how easy it is to make a mistake, on copy and paste. I should have reviewed my post better.
IMHO
Well, please go back and read post # 129996. The only mistake I made, is I should have cut and pasted better.
Anyone that can process what I was saying, should understand.
But, I know, it’s funny. I can take it. lol
IMHO
Just a paid basher, IMHO.
Well, it wasn’t a filing it was an article. So, you’re saying Huawei isn’t a top employer in Europe? Is that what’s your saying? Has certified 2,300 organizations in 121 countries/regions that taken together employing over 12 million people.
FREAKING READ:
Top Employers Institute has certified more than 2,300 organizations in 121 countries/regions that taken together, employ over 12 million people worldwide.
Patrik Rendel, Regional Manager DACH & CEE, Top Employers Institute said: "Top Employers Institute recognizes Huawei Europe as an employer with fantastic career development opportunities on all levels. Huawei scores 15% above the total of all Top Employers benchmarks."
I’m not saying this is leading to a sale of VPLM’s Euro patents, just that it’s very interesting. Possible a strategic move. Who really knows at this point.
I would imagine none of these infringers would want Huawei owning and or being in any deal with VPLM. IMHO
The filings speak for themselves. Even a 5th Grader knows this.
🛻🛻🛻…BEEP, BEEP LMAO
IMHO
It’s quoted, “ Stay on the filings, as we move around the world from the U.S. to India and now Europe Huawei the largest employer in Europe??? Lol
Initially focused on manufacturing phone switches, Huawei has expanded to more than 170 countries to include building telecommunications networks, providing operational and consulting services and equipment, and manufacturing communications devices for the consumer market.
https://www.huawei.com/en/news/2024/3/top-employer-2024-europe
🛻🛻🛻🛻…..BEEP…BEEP…BEEP…BEEP…”Stupid is, as stupid does.”
Did Rich shed some light on this?????
Schooled again!
IMHO
LMAO
Maybe you should have thought twice about posting the link. If you know what I mean.
I’ll try to get it to you
Go ask Carnac.
This is why one has to follow the court filings!!! lol
I don’t believe I said there were actual details in the article. The article suggested possible reasons for the settlement. The quote was directly what was written in the article, as one of the possible reasons. Along with the cost and risk of going to trial, for both parties.
Remember, within days of VPLM receiving a favorable 101 Alice decision, both parties filed motion to stay. Then a week or so, the parties agreed to dismiss, aka, settle.
All of this was completed, prior to an established trial date.
IMHO
The article goes on to state reasons for the settlement, beside the costs and risk factors.
“The settlement may foster a cooperative relationship and potential collaboration between Huawei and VoIP-PAL, benefiting both companies technologically and economically.”
aka, Euro Patents?
These settlements are like a riddle.
IMHO
After reading an online article, there seems like there’s more to this than meets the eye! aka, EURO Patents?
I just don’t see dismissing the case days after a favorable 101 Alice, for no reason but to avoid the cost and risk of going to trial.
Just some thoughts…
IMHO
I believe it’s been updated. The judge needs to sign off on it.
Joint motion to dismiss filed by both parties. May 9th, 2024, 1:20 pm
I wouldn’t get our hopes up for any details.
IMHO
Looks like VPLM and Huawei came to an agreement. Joint motion to dismiss was filed!
IMHO
Butter, EXCELLENT POST!!!
Totally agree the PPS is being held down. Probably not intentionally but, collateral damage nonetheless. aka, lack of potential damages and patent (s) value.
But, I agree things might just change after pretrials. I believe VPLM knows they have to get the PPS up. I heard any potential buyer will use the current PPS as leverage in their negotiations.
Which doesn’t make sense. The value of the patents determines the value of any acquisition. Not the current PPS determines value of the patents (infringement).
By now, if some can’t comprehend the importance of the court filings and material information to make decisions on their investment, I don’t know when they will. We’re wasting our time. I know I’m tired of schooling some.
IMHO
Read post # 129789, as well as the following posts.
Apologies accepted
I’m not a betting man on something I have zero control over. You seem like you’re too unstable for me to ever meet in public. Seems you’re way too sensitive, thin skinned and can’t take constructive criticism. I like to stay away from people like you. But, hey I know you’re sticking up for your buddy and you felt the need to attack me.
I don’t have to restate what you said in your previous posts, just go back and read them. Who attacked whom first?
$2.5 billion is a sellout. Estimated at $.50, estimated fully diluted. That would be under the value of just one case. Why would VPLM turnover their patent portfolio for a value under what one case is worth? Especially with the recent Huawei/Alice news. Anyone with business sense should understand this.
Most can figure out why that would be acceptable to some. I’ve stated that in numerous posts. It doesn’t take much to figure that one out.
Let me point something out. I’ll be kind of careful because I know how sensitive you appear to be. If VPLM settled pretrial with Verizon at even 30% of the value of the damages, AND ANNOUNCED THEM, the PPS would skyrocket more than your measly $.50. Any substantial settlement would validate VPLM’s patent (s). Now, add the upcoming T-Mobile trial, as well as the ‘606 Amazon. Not to mention the Asia patents. And you believe a $2.5 billion revaluation is good? Is this what you’re telling me and the other shareholders? Really?
Now, let’s get back to your risk, reward concern, if VPLM goes to trial. As it was asked to me, why would another company acquire VPLM if they would have to go through the same trouble, as VPLM has been experiencing? Don’t you think any potential buyer, would have the same concerns?
Shareholders and the market have no knowledge of the exact damages being sought and the potential value of VPLM’s parent portfolio. Hence, the PPS.
Huawei and Verizon just settled mid trial and no details (damages) were made public. This is a big concern I have that this’ll happen if VPLM settles with Verizon.
As I’ve stated, I’d love for an acquisition at a fair and reasonable price. Not with any sweetheart deal. Maybe back last May, that would be acceptable but, not after the ex parte and Alice 101 decisions. IMHO
I feel like I have to apologize to the other ihub readers but, from where I grew up, I stand up for myself and will respond back to anyone that disrespects and belittles me.
BTW, did you ever reach out to the shareholder that was looking for assistance on depositing shares?
Thanks for serving.
I wish you luck!
IMHO
Well, I guess you were contacted as well to attack me. Text, email? Are you going to threaten me as well.
Coming from you and your reputation it’s laughable!
What the hell have you ever contributed on this site. I won’t even waste my time responded to you.
IMHO
Maybe you ought to go back and read my previous post. Never did I mention I was concerned about the cost to deposit restricted shares and the commission rate to sell them. I was referring to what concerns others have with their restricted shares. I don’t have restricted shares, therefore the cost doesn’t concern me!
You snap back at me and brag about owning 20 million shares and your deposit cost is low and your commission on selling is only .5-1% rate.
How ironic that a day or so later, a shareholder with restricted shares, reached out to you for assistance on where to deposit his shares, as his rate was 3.5%.
You may want to look in the mirror, because you have egg on your face.
BTW, were you respectful enough to reach out to this shareholder or are you too selfish to do so? Thus far, I haven’t seen your response.
I’m going to go out on a limb and guess, the more shares one deposits, the lower their cost/rate will be.
It’s obvious that a lot of shareholders are looking for an acquisition at a “sweetheart” deal just to be able to deposit their restricted shares and avoid the extra costs, as well as risking going to trial. You stated, “end up being worthless is virtuous “.
Kinda funny you say this, after I questioned why anyone would want to acquire VPLM, if they will have go through the same trouble they are experiencing.
I’d love to have a company acquire VPLM. But, only at a reasonable cost. Which certainly isn’t at the same price as one of the pending trials. Can you comprehend my point?
So stop your bragging and disrespecting others, that aren’t fortunate enough to own as many shares as you.
Why don’t you shut up, grow up, man up and grow a pair.
I’m not going to sit back and let someone like you disrespect me, without saying anything. That’s for sure.
IMHO
Absolutely, what do you think being a cheerleader and disrespecting others is contributing?
“Oh, there’re working hard, a lot going on behind the scenes, there’s a surprise coming, I expect something real soon, etc”! This is contributing? Get serious!
Everyone already knows there’s a lot happening. And as we get closer to the trial the PPS should appreciate higher. But, just imagine how much higher, if the investment community knew the potential value of VPLM’s patent (s). Most investors comprehend this, PERIOD!!
I know IR is working hard. That’s why I forward any court filings he hasn’t had a chance to research.
Why don’t you two, stop your bitching and crying when you don’t like constructive criticism. You’re both like little children. What are you now sharing the back seat with him? MAN UP, you two are grown old men.
LMAO (BTW, I’m not referring to any stock/market.).
If my constructive criticism bothers the company, please have them call me. They probably couldn’t care less what criticism they’re receiving.
I’m not helpful, what are you two? Get over yourselves for once!!!!
IMHO
It’s quoted…” I used to love sharing what I would dig up….no more “.
Are you freaking kidding me, right now? What in the world have you ever contributed, besides disrespecting and bashing every shareholder that doesn’t agree with your opinion (s). You call and harass them, disrespect them on the board and encourage them to attack me. You’ve burned more bridges with shareholders, than I can shake a stick at.
You like to think you know information others don’t. I’m told you know nothing. I understand you’ve encouraged a number of investors to buy VPLM’s stock. This is probably the only reason why anyone with VPLM, would take the time to speak with you.
Just curious, I wonder how these shareholders feel when they hear you say, they’re not entitled to know the potential value of their investment, aka VPLM’s patents and the potential damages being sought! This just baffles not only me and others.
Hey, before I go, how’s the PPS performing after about 50 million shares traded over the last few days? Hmmm, do you think just maybe if the investment community knew the damages being sought, it might go even a little higher? You think.
BTW, I call bullshit on any NDA on not reporting damages being sought. If this were true, what concessions were made to VPLM, for agreeing to do so? I believe this is by choice, for various reasons.
IMHO
To be continued…
IMHO
Agreed, let’s give it the 30 days and hopefully it’ll start to appreciate, as we’d expect it to. Keep an eye on the court filing, as you know.
Apparently, from what we’ve heard, Huawei isn’t big infringer. Not sure exactly what that means. Even a small settlement, not to mention licensing going forward, could keep further dilution down some. Not knowing the details, certainly won’t help the PPS.
What’s interesting, is I don’t recall any trial date set for them in the near future. So, hearing they’re trying to resolve this case, is extremely encouraging, especially right after the Alice 101 decision.
Something else that’s encouraging, I heard that any further settlements in Waco, the damages will be made public. Unlike what happened with Amazon. We’ll see if this holds true, as things change like the weather with VPLM.
IMHO
Yeah, of course with your number of shares you’d like to see an acquisition. I’d love to see it happen, as well . But, not at a ridiculous price so I can liquidate all my shares. That’s pretty selfish, if you ask me.
It’s a good thing you’re not negotiating for the shareholders.
Again, as for the cost of depositing restricted shares, I ONLY stated what was told to me by others that have experienced it. I’m sure it’s different depending who one uses. It doesn’t make any difference to me. Nor does it concern me.
As for the cost not being one of the reasons for an acquisition, is nonsense. Of course it is.
IMHO
Obviously, Emil’s not looking for advice but he should.
As I’ve stated numerous times, as we get closer to the trial date (s), the PPS.should increase. An intelligent investor should know any material news, aka Alice101 Denial, would also be a positive to increase the PPS. This goes without saying. Or should I say, if one is able to process things, it goes without saying.
ALWAYS remember one thing, if the PPS increased due to the aforementioned reasons, one can only imagine how much more the PPS would appreciate if damages were announced!…….You think!
LMAO
IMHO
Kinda funny when one cried to IR when all the inside selling started and said he was going to sell. Now, it appears it doesn’t bother him. lol
Not too sure what difference does it make, holding their investment in VPLM, when a shareholder (s) feels they should be made aware of the value of VPLM’s
patents. There’re plenty of shareholders that feel this way.
IMHO
I guess since one just needs to talk to IR, there’s no need to follow the court filings.
Hmm, how ironic, since there were numerous times that IR, wasn’t aware of such court filings and asked me to forward them to him!
LMAO
Shhh…..no one’s supposed to know. Apparently, VPLM sign an NDA not to disclose any damages!
One must ask why would VPLM agree to this? I believe there’s no such NDA, regarding damages. They’re just not making them public. We’ll just have to wait for the financials.
Clocks ticking on depositing restricted shares., if there’s no acquisition prior to the August trial.
I’ll get back to Chick Hicks when I have more time. Beep beep
IMHO
