It won’t.
I assume you are referring to the Sawyer letters? Of those I have no worries. As far as I’ve concluded, there was no illegal influence. Sawyer was simply a shareholder voicing his concerns regarding the unconstitutionality of the current PTAB/IPR system. He simply reminded everyone to stay within the legal parameters or potentially face consequences of criminal behavior. Everything written was factual. Apples response is simply another stall tactic.
If you’re referring to something else, please, I invite you to do tell. What harm would there be to share the info with this board, other than giving us the ability to fact check it?
Still waiting on all of your past excited predictions to come to fruition.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!
May 2018 be THE year for this stock to finally break through the roof!!!
I have to wonder if Apple is gonna wanna continue this stand off considering the almost 1 Trillion dollar lawsuits they now face for slow iPhones.
I believe this was for the 911 patent. Was it not?
Not to mention why would they be spending any added money on this if they thought it would be an easy win based on non-infringement in court?? Logical conclusions may not BE facts, but they are more than certainly BASED ON FACTS.
So why would they be spending so much time and money trying to discredit patents that they are not even be infringing upon?!? Simple logic, they wouldn’t. They’re trying to stall in order to force our company into bankruptcy so that they won’t HAVE to own up to their infringing behaviors. This we have proof of them doing all the time. Do you think Apple runs on ethics? Their most recent case against them alone proved they do not.
First of all, the “reality” is that the market is manipulated daily and anyone in the investment world is aware of this or they are a fool. If you buy or sell strictly based on the direction of the share price you will more than likely lose money. The entire picture must be taken into account, especially including the players and most importantly the patent suite itself.
And second... it’s already taken me 5 years to get this far (many far longer), and I for one feel we have taken massive strides towards the completion of monetization. Unprecedented strides, against all odds!! Though I’d love for this to be completed by next month, I certainly have no problem waiting a bit longer, even years if need be, to see this through and justice served.
Just another stall tactic by Apple.
All he did was point out the corruption occurring in the department. He never said “rule in our favor”, he basically said, if I recall, “you all need to make sure your actions are honorable.”
Where’s my “like” button
And to add to all this... we are also now DEBT FREE!!
The way I see it is, the more that is scooped up by Longs, the less there will be out there to manipulate the price with
I believe they can include them in their lawsuit.
The IPRs were not about “settlements”, they were about VALIDATION. Making an unprecedented sweep at the PTAB was beyond any expectation. These patents, and the board and legal team, have proven their worth, and increased it as well with continued global patenting.
ONLY NOW do we head to trial to hopefully conclude settlements. Otherwise we’re all aware it may lead to a long trial. However, WE LONGS believe that if we do have to patiently wait out a long trial, the likelihood is that triple damages will make it well worth the wait!
Yep. I have no doubts that they/we can see this through to fruition. I have zero problem supporting this company, as do many others I’m sure. The giants have no idea who they are up against.
I love this!!
I, myself, and my husband and many friends and family members joined the long group in 2013 and later, and have not regretted a single day!! This money is going to do so much good for so many people!!! With a few purchases in the .08-.14 range, I look to average out .02-.04. We have all held strong, even during the days of discomfort. I now believe we MUST be down the final stretch. And barring any more corruption, this is gonna pay off big!!
I appreciate all those who have shared their thoughts and facts!! You’ve truly been a big help in retaining my sanity on this board. I can’t wait to meet you all at the big gala when this is over!
It’s been a long ride. Emotions are high.
My vote, Tahiti or the Maldives
I’m still shooting for $25 Billion ??
Thank you Lord, our day has arrived!!!!
And again, NYT, they did not patent VOIP itself, but rather a way that VOIP IS NOW BEING USED.
The patents have been “pending” long before 2010.
Apple and the others would not be fighting and filing (losing/denied) IPRs if they weren’t sure they’d have something to lose. And K&M would not have argued/supported this case for so long if they thought there was a likelihood that they would fail. Apple tried to show in their IPR that our patents were not as claimed to be. They failed. They’ve all failed.
This is going to pay out. Just gotta be patient
It’s always such low volume on news days. It’s crazy! And people think the runs are based on promos. Yea right. :-P
I’m with MMR, me neither.
But I heard before, and not sure how accurate, that 8B a yr is a reasonable estimate. But now that we’re throwing the EU into the mix it could be much more!
I don’t believe so. This just puts a greater value on the patents overall!
It’s not VOIP that’s been patented!! It’s how it is specifically routed and billed.
Nice analogy!
Except apparently only about 60 companies (so far) are using this technology, and have made hundreds of BILLIONS off it. Remember, they were notified of infringing long ago. This technology was only designed 14 years ago and the “patent pending” started shortly after. These giants have known they were stealing for a long time, and it’s time to pay the dues.
Well thank you! I certainly wouldn’t say best, but I appreciate your compliment. Many of us here truly know these patents are what they say they are. It’s just a matter of justice playing itself out.
Oh, and for some of u, emojis don’t work on this site. They turn into ??s. You have to use punctuation
Kind of like buying a car :-P
Except that they felt the PTAB was stacked in their favor. They knew they’d been able to use that system before and expected it to be an easy win, especially since VP is such a small company standing on its last financial leg. What they didn’t expect was for VP to be so voracious in its defense. It’s like a bully picking on that wrong little kid in the playground, the one who breaks out all the badass ninja moves. They also didn’t expect for the corruption in the PTAB to be uncovered and corrected, at least not before their big win.
Apple would not be fighting this hard against us if they knew they were not infringing. And they all wouldn’t be ganging up against us if the patents were not indeed disruptive and potentially expensive. This thing WILL pop. It’s inevitable!
Nope, they understand fully, and that’s why they are waiting to see if Apple can wear VP into the ground and infringe for free. The tide will change. Then we will see a landslide of action. Of that I have no doubts.
I completely agree! And as my sister stated awhile back, it is completely logical that this company could sell for $15-25B!
Excellent post!!
I have some friends who got some at 2 cents right before it popped. Very happy campers!!
Skip over some posts and you may get through it all pretty quickly!
Sometimes I just can’t help myself. It’s far too easy Uhhhh.... I’m referring to supporting this company of course :-P Been here going on 5 years and patiently awaiting the windfall, if justice is on our side!
My theory is that someone on the side of the Giants took advantage of all the fearful/impatient/nervous selling back in the 2 and 3 cents range. Those people are now selling off small increments slowly in order to keep the price from skyrocketing. Laymen’s theory of course. :-P
Can’t wait to see it...
