Sure someone invented or discovered how to do it first, but that puts a limitation on how it can be improved upon for the benefit of us the consumers. The possibility that two people on different sides of the globe think of solving an issue in a similar way is highly probable. Should now prevent the others idea from reaching consumers because it infringes on another's?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dee]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 28th 2008 1:17PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ITC Judge says SiRF GPS chips violate patents, recommends import ban]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/28/itc-judge-says-sirf-gps-chips-violate-patents-recommends-import/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/28/itc-judge-says-sirf-gps-chips-violate-patents-recommends-import/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hilarious... I used to work for Global Locate, which is the comapny that Broadcomm aquired. There was talk of suing Sirf in those days over IP that we had. Unfortunately, we were a little too small at the time. Not anymore! This is related to A-GPS technology, LTO (long term orbit) calculations and some other things. Glad it's finally coming to fruition.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scott]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 28th 2008 1:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ITC Judge says SiRF GPS chips violate patents, recommends import ban]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/28/itc-judge-says-sirf-gps-chips-violate-patents-recommends-import/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/28/itc-judge-says-sirf-gps-chips-violate-patents-recommends-import/</guid><description><![CDATA[Then why didn't Broadcomm do anything with the technology? Imagine if consumers had to wait for years for Broadcomm to finally roll out GPS chips.

It sports that III chipset!!  By the way, that chipset is absolutely amazing. If I remember correctly it uses normal GPS, Aviation GPS, and cell towers.
