Decision Diagnostics Corp (DECN)

[Going_4_It]

Decision Diagnostics holds a patent on storing patient health records on a cell phone.

At least they did at one time. I have no idea of the status of the patent at this time. Several years ago I asked Mr Berman about it and he said "they" decided not to pursue it at that time.

Now it appears Apple Computer is entering into the market is a big way. It just occurred to me that MAYBE there is another patent suit coming, this time with DECM in control. Or if not then maybe a lucrative license agreement with royalties. In either case, Apple has enough cash on hand to buy DECN outright, a thousand times over.

Here is some news about Apple's product, just launched:
