I agree...also Google is not going to leave any wiggle room after a settlement payment for Vringo to make future claims against them or any of their business partners. I don't think many people appreciate how complex and time consuming settlement negotiations can be. The one I was involved with (my employer was on the "plaintiffs" side) was a $100 million dollar plus settlement that took several months for all parties to sign off on before presentment to the Judge for approval. Lead attorneys on both sides(I was the only accountant involved)met constantly in secrecy until process was done and all loopholes were closed. I was also amazed at how friendly everyone got (dire enemies during the trial) once settlement was reached! We even had a dinner with the other side's attorneys to celebrate the resolution post-settlement. Go figure !
