Here are some significant cases: There was the Blackberry patent suit won by NTP that forever wounded RIM. I wouldn't doubt if Microsoft instigated or funded it. It came right at the time that the MS Mobile OS & devices were ready to launch. RIM should have just setlled to keep its market share. It ended up paying almost $700M any way -- and lost market share. Qualcomm vs. Broadcom - Broadcom won this suit. No new phones using the infringed tech from Qualcomm can be introduced in the US. Just as the iPhone is launching Sprint and VZW don't have anything new. Obviously: Case # 1:06-cv-00682-CMH-BRP, Verizon vs. Vonage over VoIP including VoIP over Wi-fi (which could effect ELN).

Vonage's trial is set for September, 2007 (if it can survive the VZ litigation). Many agree that it will result in a sale of Vonage to Sprint. Australia's CSIRO vs. Buffalo Tech & Wi-Fi : "wireless-LAN equipment vendor Buffalo Technology in its patent fight with the Australian science agency CSIRO, could have broad implications for the entire Wi-Fi industry. Judge Leonard Davis of the Eastern District Court of Texas found that Buffalo was violating CSIRO's 1996 patent underlying 802.11a/g technology - the core of all corporate wireless LANs and public Wi-Fi networks - and that the Japanese manufacturer, which has a US subsidiary based in Austin, Texas, must cease selling WLAN products until it reaches a license agreement with CSIRO. Recognising that the CSIRO patent poses a universal threat to makers of Wi-Fi gear, a group of major tech companies that includes Intel, Dell and Hewlett-Packard filed countersuits in May 2005, seeking to have the CSIRO patent invalidated."

To continue our blunders them, let's look at Denny Strigl, COO at VZ, who proudly tells how he declined to offer the iPhone. Seth writes a little about how Denny was just saving the status quo. Maybe he will prove smarter than us -- but with all the hype and reviews, you have to figure they will sell millions of these phones ... on the Cingular network - not the VZW one.Update: in another blog, there was a note: On a related note, Verizon recently released these talking points (courtesy of AppleInsider) to their customer service department in what looks like management's feared mass exodus of Verizon customers to the iPhone.
