"PATENTS OVERLY OBVIOUS, UNENFORCEABLE, AND PERHAPS SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GRANTED? "Ancient Alien Astronaut Theorists say yes!"

What will the patent office say? Well that's all that matters isn't it?

Well, when the CEO states that it's a $ .05 stock, then this is why where are where we are at. IMHO Emil made the biggest mistake and shot himself in the foot when he mentioned crowding funds and 100 millions shares at $.05. He probably didn't realize he set the market. Big big mistake IMHO. Now how does he get out of it? White Knight or one major investor to buy up a big stake in the company. Or the BOD's buy back stock. Who knows!

He should of stated raising enough money for the next 18 months or so. Not the full projected four years of litigation. 25 million max @ $ .05 and addressed the remaining amount when the stock price is higher and if needed. I'm sure he's kicking himself in the butt over this. Like I said, he couldn't sell a bag of ice at beach. No clue had to market to the investment community.

Your point of "similar" is great. That's just it! "SIMILAR" doesn't count in patents............and won't hold up in an IPR Petition!...... Just ask Microsoft about their similar LI patent!..... And your also correct about due diligence! One needs to do some.

There are THOUSANDS of related patents dating PRIOR to the Voip-Pal patents, and if any of VPLM's can be cited as previously in use, somewhere, by someone, prior to VPLM then game over.

While there might be thousands of related patents I think one would be hard pressed to find more than a a handful that relate directly to RBR in VoIP.

The RBR patents that VPLM has developed are very specific in detailing the calling attributes over a dynamic network. Not many prior art pieces/patents talk to this at all.

Another interesting point I'd like to make is that of all the thousands of related patents and prior art documents out there both UNIFIED PATENTS and APPLE could only find 6 patents to challenge VPLM's RBR patent. SIX! I was expecting at least a couple dozen given the thousands of related prior art patents out there!
