I believe that the judge issued a stay which allows Sony to keep selling the PS2 units pending their expected appeal.Psychotic_Carp wrote:what the hell

Okay, I read it. And it says pretty much the same thing I heard on the news earlier today which was why I didn't read it in the first place. Yes, I did notice that it mentions the stay early in the articlePsychotic_Carp wrote:kurt culler wrote:I believe that the judge issued a stay which allows Sony to keep selling the PS2 units pending their expected appeal.Psychotic_Carp wrote:what the hell

there is a group that patented selling items online or something like that and they have been suing online retailers over it, what gave them the right to patent that and what was the patent office thinking when they gave them that patent. i think thats why im pissed, people seem to be able to patent anything and that gets to mefluffy wrote:
Hey patents are tricky things. You never know. Maybe Sony just didn't cover their asses properly when they used that vibration chip in the hand sets, if that's true, then they should get a better lawyer.
I agree it's a fishy concept. Getting a patent shouldn't be that easy. I agree!Psychotic_Carp wrote:there is a group that patented selling items online or something like that and they have been suing online retailers over it, what gave them the right to patent that and what was the patent office thinking when they gave them that patent. i think thats why im pissed, people seem to be able to patent anything and that gets to mefluffy wrote:
