Rambus (RMBS)

[jaw_nee_g]

Let me get this straight...TR Labs is claiming that Rambus didn't design the elements it claims in its '703 patent granted on September 7,1993 and thus Rambus should not collect royalties on those designs. Instead, the royalties, as well as damages, should go to TR Labs because they "designed" those elements in their '277 patent granted on November 1, 1994, over 1 year later.

The '277 patent references 4 patents as prior art.
The '703 patent references 53 patents and 21 articles/papers.

Based on the above, I don't doubt that this argument would actually be of some merit in His Nibs courtroom.
