I heard it - once was enough. I am concerned about the use of comprised as it sounded like they (judge with TM attorney in agreement - in a long winded unnecessary theatric discussion) that the word actually reduces the scope of the patent by requiring the inclusion of distance as a parameter. Coupling this with the earlier decibel discussion of mountains, thick walls, price, interference. It sounds like they landed on TM phones use X+Y+Z for their parameters to work; where as Calypso's patent is X+Y+Z+distance.
I frankly don't care about the fact the TM attorney "sounded" more polished than our guy - or the perceived camaraderie or lack of camaraderie between the attorneys and the judges. To me that's just how they make their jobs more tolerable after sitting in that room day after day listening to the right and left side of the room.
A question for the team - at the end of the day - what was being decided? Was it
a) return to the court and redo it all? b) return to the court and include the interpretation of the word comprised that the judge said?
if a) then I think this will be interesting if b) then I think we have a steeper hill to climb
