Positive for Worlds
Validating the software driven patents is a plus, but more importantly the "drill down" of the actual damages applied.
This has become an exercise of "Trial Experts" and proper planning of testimony as well as cross-examination. Both VirnetX and Vringo cases were heavily impacted by the testimony of these experts.
Worlds will do well to capture the correct revenue impact of the infringment and document in a manner that is consistent with the VirnetX appeal outcome.
Worlds attorneys will be certain to have compelling testimony to refute the defendants experts, though I do not think we will be faced with any of the attacks that Vringo saw, due to the fact that Worlds patents are not combinatory.
World's is most definetly not Vringo.
