If the patent suppression was the issue in the past, doesn't that mean that the technology was very good and threatening to the industry and someone did not want it in the market at that time but today that would have much greater value to everyone in that business and the value would be very high? That is a much better senerino than the technology does not work. I agree with other comments on this board where the first set of bidders should be companies like: LightSquare, Google, Apple, Verizon, AT&T, T-Moble, Concast, etc.
$200M, $400M, or even $1 Billion to these companies for this technology is chump change. The fact that once they have the patent under their control, they can then go after their infringers. With the 300MM phones in the US, plus the Ipads, touch pads, etc., this should easily bring in over $1 billion per year of revenue. Say there are 400 million devices needing this technology, at simply .50/month charge on you bill that would add up to $2.4 billion per year. Even .25/month is over a billion dollars per year.
Even at the sale price of %1B, the payback is less than one year. That is a great capital investment for any company.
