"What happens if the companies infringing on the vplm patents are only infringing on a partial part of the patent?
Would the judge throw out the case? I'm under the impression that if the patents are not being 100% infringed upon, then the courts will rule against vplm."

If above was the case, it lessens the apparent value of vplm patents, not makes it look so much better than licencing, infringement..

"I think we all know that the best case scenario is to sell the patent portfolio. Licensing will be a far second best. "

Not necessarily so. If the patents are as good & as valuable as we have been led to believe, esp in the foundational aspects, then infringement & licencing could provide major income x up to 20 yrs x all the potential infringers. There are groups who would support that effort, no problem & it's been done many times before. That's why they came up w/the saying: "follow the money". No way vplm lack of cash would begin to put the kibosh on such an effort, if the patents were really so valuable.
