Just a final comment on VHC today... that stock has already been compared to IDCC many times on message boards, articles, and elsewhere. I think someone even asked Merritt about that company at the IDCC ASM. In my opinion, the technology does not overlap and two companies -- outside of being NPEs looking to monetize their patents -- should not be compared.
IDCC invented (continues to invent) cellular wireless and related technologies. It's not all radio-based, but most of the techniques and protocols cover the wireless transmission/reception of voice & data. VHC, on the other hand, has invented technology relating to secure domain names and secure DNS lookups. Going forward, advanced 4G and other networks are going to base their core architecture on secure protocols - the same tech that currently secures VPNs. These are the technologies VHC claims to own.
So IDCC vs VHC is not even an apples vs. oranges comparison. To me, it is more like apples vs. lettuce. One's a fruit, the other is a vegetable. And, no, I did not steal that from the punch line of a joke.
