Found this surfing a little while going over the Louisville beat down they just gave Colorado State.
This was a comment under the article Princeton wrote 11 days ago and we should all be looking forward to this case's outcome:

By Jorgemtorres:
Since you posted the article, the Federal Circuit has granted a petition for rehearing en banc in a case in which it's going to revisit the Cybor standard of review for claim construction. If the court starts giving trial judges more deference on cc rulings, I think your thesis about Markman-as-catalyst will be strengthened. Markman rulings (and the price movements that accompany them) will likely have more staying power in world where a trial judge's Markman "findings" are accorded even a modicum of deference. The case is Lighting Ballast Control LLC v. Philips Electronics North America Corp. et al., Nos. 2012-1014, -1015 (Fed. Cir. Mar. 15, 2013).

Princeton's response:
Yes this case is very material to your point and to the future of judicial impact on claim construction. I was not aware of this case but I will be following it closely now. Many thanks for the note.
