Makes perfect sense - this continues to be business as usual which is required from IDCC. If we were to stop normal activities, including litigation, you are waving the white flag to an acquirer that IDCC's only option is a buy out.

I want to sell my shares for large $$$ as bad as anyone but if the money is not right, going back to work on the infringers is how we will make money in the future. For every turncoat gloom and doom crybaby short at I-Hub (this means you Nicmar), no deal means that our licensing department needs to get back to work...or hand this off to our new owner when the price is right.

First and foremost, LG is a former licensee. Licenses contain clauses regarding renewal. It is not unusual to find 6 month time periods of continued negotions after a 5 year license. IDCC may have notified LG that the time was up for good faith negotiations and they were no longer under a shield of wrongful infringement. LG may have invoked the dispute resolution clause under the license extending the negotiations for an additional 90 days. This takes us to the close of the third quarter. IDCC filed its action on the first available day of the fourth quarter. This the logical explanantion of the recent filing. I believe IDCC is firming up its enforcement under its present business model in the event it does not go forward with a strategic alternative. I do not believe that IDCC filed the LG action to appease or please any bidder in the ongoing process.
