Someone might want to look at the definition of a patent.rockymtnhigh said:TiVo should not be able to strangle other companies in terms of innovation.
It isn't like TiVo didn't try to partner with DISH/SATS. TiVo held partnering talks with DISH/SATS back in 1999. DISH/SATS simply said they'll do their own DVR in-house.
DISH/SATS innovation? TiVo left a prototype. DISH/SATS used the exact same media switch that was in the prototype. Innovation does not involve copying someone else's patented design.
Now that I agree with.vampz26 said:...And what if the law breaks the law? Which could very well be the case here? One should have no recourse for justice?
Except from reading the DISH/SATS response, it appears to me that once again DISH/SATS is trying to relitigate that what was lost before. There are plenty of distorted facts in that document.
