IT'S A BATTERY IT BENEFITS ALL PEOPLE WHO USE ELECTORNIC DEVICES. Any universal benefit should not be granted a patent.

I say again, I am patenting driking a liquid. It is a mechanical process that requires a container that must be moved into a precise position to work effectivly. Everyone that takes a drink is violating my patent and owes me money. Hell if immersion can patent vibration through any means. Does that mean that vibrating massage chairs violate thier patent? I bet it does.

Large corporations own so many patents today that is basically impossible for any small company to create anything without being hit with an injunction.]]>Mar 8th 2007 11:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/08/3m-sues-sony-lenovo-and-others-over-laptop-batteries/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/08/3m-sues-sony-lenovo-and-others-over-laptop-batteries/
We don't make the things you use ....


.... we sue the shit out to the people who do]]>Mar 9th 2007 12:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/08/3m-sues-sony-lenovo-and-others-over-laptop-batteries/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/08/3m-sues-sony-lenovo-and-others-over-laptop-batteries/Mar 9th 2007 2:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/03/08/3m-sues-sony-lenovo-and-others-over-laptop-batteries/http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/08/3m-sues-sony-lenovo-and-others-over-laptop-batteries/
But I bet 3M would not have sued Lenovo (or basically the ThinkPad brand), if it was still owned by IBM. IBM has WAY to many patents of their own and would have made a very unattractive target.

It is a matter of MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction), although in this case IBM has way more bombs to drop.]]>Mar 9th 2007 4:29AM
