here's an important read dat will decide where BRST is headed

The SJ Motions Today Only Invalidated 5 Of Those Claims -- that's only part of the issue
"It looks to me that 75 claims in the '995' patent are still "valid' in the opinion of Judge Patel."
That seems to be a legally correct statement (assuming the arithmetic is correct).
Also legally correct is the statement that we only need one claim to survive in order to proceed to trial.
But, the real question is whether what is left of BRST's cases against AAPL is worth something. Were the patent claims that went the important ones, worth big money, so that today's loss is largely harmless; or did the big guns fall today, so that we have popguns left?
I don't know. It's beyond my non-technical expertise. Someone who knows the technology and the patents, and understands them, should try to answer this.
For an analogy, if you have several different theories of law under each of which you claim the right to recover $1B damages, pleaded in each of several counts, and the defendant's actions injured you in the same way under each of those counts, and the damages under each count are the same, the loss of all but one of those counts is inconsequential.
But if you had pleaded three counts for $1B, and a couple of counts for modest, separate unpaid bills of a few hundred thousand or a few thousand, then it makes a huge difference if you lose the first three counts.
Sure, you can proceed to trial on the remaining counts, but it's not worth it..
And I don't know which this is, but that's what we need to know.
teresadactyl, vasco, mfc??
yes..BRST lost on several counts in the summary judgement VS Apple. But the core patent is still intact. I think it will bounce..ouch....
just need a good PR and KABOOM

it's my understanding from this website:
http://delcode.delaware.gov/title8/c001/sc07/index.shtml#TopOfPage).
That DMTN is using this process for the proxy vote:
Shareholders may attend the special meeting if they are listed as shareholders of record at the close of business on November 14, 2007 and bring proof of identification. If they hold their shares through a broker or other nominee, they will need to provide satisfactory proof of share ownership, which will be described in the proxy materials.
The Company is subject to the Delaware General Corporation Law, which requires that notice of a special shareholder meeting “shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder's address as it appears on the records of the corporation.”
It appears to me that he is using the shortest time possible given the rules as I read them and the fact that we have US Thanksgiving, Christmas Holidays etc etc.
