Is there a product in NTPs future??
The much maligned US patent system certainly needs work. Companies who develop ideas and patent them with no real intent to ever produce a product should not be allowed to retain exclusive rights after an established period. This practice goes directly against our US interest of being a world technology leader. It impairs the ability of US companies to develop products and gain marketshare in the US and abroad.
In light of all this, I see a government funded settlement in return for a “free” hefty licensing agreement.
