Eric,
According to the reports that I've read, IBM, among other companies, have
ponied up to this guy rather than fight him in court.
I haven't been following the story closely, but I think that the judge in a
case where a company is fighting asked for some proof from the patent
holder and some definitions of terminology that may substantially weaken
their case.
