Are you sure about these statements? Google is doing this so that small companies like NeoMedia, and patent trolls, have a much harder time suing them. Google controls, or has an ownership stake, in 100s of thousands of patents Therefore, these sales decrease portfolio value unless you are sitting on 1,000+ patents. Any references would be greatly appreciated. Can you provide links/references to support these statements? In addition to the analysts, the entire board would likely benefit from any facts/clarification. Thanks in advance...
