If you are going to say that his facts are facts until they aren't, then you must apply that to ALL facts. All facts are facts until they aren't... I don't think that's a very balanced way of defining what facts are. There are considerations that I think need to be taken into account. That's why I have made a point of pushing the idea that certain things about this company are true for so many years, that this lends serious weight to whether things are factual or not. As an example, what is the definiition of value? To me, value means anything that can be put on a market and be able to sell for a certain price in a certain reasonable time frame. If it can not sell for a reasonable amount in a reasonable amt of time, or at all, then I consider that thing to have no value. I think that's pretty simple and fair. Thus, Vplm has allegedly been trying to sell, license or settle for approx 13 years and not been able to raise a dime. In my book, that renders it as valueless. And not just because it hasn't been able to sell, but also no proof has ever been given that the patents are indeed capable of what's been claimed for them. Both digi-phony-ca and Vplm claimed to have tested, but to my knowledge, no test results were ever made public. Also, as I've previously reported, the USPTO was not obligated to require Vplm to provide working proof. They had the right to ask Vplm for it but afaik, they did not. And so there is no proof I know of.

Furthermore, it's been stated or at lest implied that the fancy lawyers with all their knowledge of patents, would not have taken these cases up unless they themselves were capable of looking at the patents and determining they are indeed "all that" they have been claimed to be. To that, I can't help but call BS. I have previously explained this, to no avail... If it is true, as claimed, that it took some $18 million and some 20 voip engineers and code writers to compose the patents, then how could it be possible that 1 lawyer or whoever, that looks at the patents, would singlehandedly be able to make the same determinations that took 20 geniuses and $18 million? Doesn't jive for me. So afaik, there's no proof and of course you must add to the mix that not a single company has stepped up to buy, license or settle. These things have me convinced, along with other facts, that the patents ain't all that. And if they ain't worth all them billions, then they ain't worth squat

Again I've been 1000% correct. Get back to me when they get financial judgements that are in-line with the "billions and billions of ongoing" infringements that the CEO has spoken about. If not then it's a complete failure and confirmation that the patents aren't worth near as claimed. Results matter and the numbers don't lie!
