Oh, there's a way.....and it'll be more than just a year......as I've been correctly predicting for the past 5. When peeps think that "valid patents" equates to eventual wins and/or that IPR "wins" also supports eventual success and a group of goofy mental cases whose claim to fame is name calling alongside their Vplm opinions, that also does zip to provide a realistic view of this long standing, share printing, share selling, personal insider ATM. All dots connect. This building wave of recently new optimism and cocksure predictions of imminent or near term successes on the way, have been repeated practically verbatim over and over and over, throughout the years and is nothing more than persuasiveness, hubris, wishful thinking, going where the weather suits your clothes, pumping, wise guy-ism, know it all is, trying to impress ism, married to a dead horse ism, etc. The patents have proven themselves since conception, to be useless, valueless, unproven, unsubstantiated fluff. All the IPRs and "validity", contain no proof of anything more than the patents met the basic criteria that the uspto sets forth. That does not incluse, need, value, efficacy, infringement or anything other than they are valid patents. The vast majority of so called valid patents never make a dime and according to my research, courts have yet to consider IPR "wins" as anything of legal weight. Maybe that has changed since I did the research but as far as I know and in total contrast to all those who insist the ipr wins are the piece de resistance, end all be all saving grace that insurers the Vplm ship is coming in, I'm afraid they are in for a long long wait on top of the long long wait already in the bag
As I've correctly explained many times, the quite simple fact o matter is that if the patents were worth even a fraction of what Vplm led peeps to believe...and we're so fundamental and necessary to the operation of voip, there are many common sense deep pocket ceos who would've grabbed the suite long ago.
All the arguments such as they all stole the patents (with their borg hive mentality) and they all think it makes more sense to steal the tech and infringe rather than reap the untold fortunes of owning the patents, have long been dispelled. They don't make sense. They don't add up. They don't hold water. Or the most popular held belief found here for more than a decade, that the dig dogs take this route because they know they can wear down and deplete the Vplm coiffers.......as Vplm has for at least a dozen years shown and proven that they handily had the ways and means (print and sell shares endlessly) to come up with all the cash necessary to keep the carnival operating. This is obvious. It's old news. It is the forest thru the trees but you ignore it as though its not there.
Vplm made wild claims initially but never provided the proofs, such as published results of the worldwide nodal tests.
When shareholders here have been asked repeatedly, would they, had the money, buy the patents, the crickets got loud. Easy to see why.
A farce
An eminence front
A share printing/selling, self enrichment scheme, of the 3rd kind, same as the emu and crew were found guilty of by a jury of their peers.
Disappointment and future regret on tap here
All my commentary is to be considered as my personal opinions, to which I am entitled. And there is no proof of said opinions unless I offer it in the comments.
