I learned many years ago that relying on perceptions of oral arguments is not a good gauge for predicting outcomes. This is why I asked a couple of patent lawyers to review the briefs and listen to the oral argument. They were excited about our chances back then, but they are confused as to the delay as we sit here today. It only seems logical that a company whose expertise is invention and patent prosecution is capable of selecting a few patent claims that can be found in the products of an infringing manufacturer. I remain confident that IDCC personnel and outside counsel have made their case. I have stated before that every lawyer involved in the investigation was surprised at the claims construction issued by the ALJ. If Nok was confident that their products did not infringe the patent claims in the 337 investigation, they would have filed a motion for summary determination regarding infringement and avoided the evidentiary hearing. It is also the reason that Nok included domestic industry in the appeal because they never expected to win on a no infringement finding. They had been in our labs for 3 years jointly developing 3g technology. They even licensed our patent portfolio for 3g under the famous contingent special. I wake up every morning hoping for a miracle that stops the bad faith dealing by Nok and allows me to save a little face with my family and buddies.

Have you ever gone back again, after all the has happened, and re-listened to the Oral Arguments Recording?

Oral Arguments Recording (mp3 format / 31.6 MB) for case no. 2010-1093 INTERDIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS V. ITC

http://wirelessledger.com/IDCC_v_ITC_2010-1093_Oral_Recording.mp3

I personally found it theraputic. Without reading the briefs, based upon the arguments that day, a positive outcome must still today be likely for InterDigital. I forgot about it, but Mr. Dunner even had a Perry Mason moment at the end by feeding off the judges confusion with the ITC's oral arguments, by giving a dramatic "Rest My Case" while emphasizing and reiterating the confusion created by the ITC.

Do you have any new thoughts??
