Klausner

The problem with Klausner, from what I have seen, (and please someone correct me if I'm wrong), is that they seem to just be holding the patents for the sole purpose of suing people who use them and make them pay royalties for their use.

That is just unethical. If you have a patent, I believe you should be obligated to use the patent and bring your product to market. Klausner has had the patent since 1994, why haven't they produced an application for it?RIM's VVM app for example is made by RIM, not Klausner.

Venturing over to their website is a trip down Give-Me-A-Goddamn-Break lane. There's no place on the website that even lists its product offerings, it's all links to different emails about patents in question.

This type of activity hinders innovation. Why don't I just submit a patent for a teleporter, sit on it for 50 years until someone finally makes one? Then I can be rich!
