    Yes because it's obviously much more important that Broadcom's CEO gets another ten Ferraris than that everyone has decent GPS.

    are they mad?

    I hope that if broadcom wins it introduces a similar chip at similar cost.


    ninja edit: if you want a GPS, Grab it now!

    Ug that seems ludicrous to me, another example of when patents go wrong. The best product should win, not someone who called dibs on a concept first. If you created the technology you would thhink you would be able to make it function better than the competition anyway.

    And for next magic trick...

    I shall request a patent for the process of approving patents. When my patent is granted, I will then argue to null and void all existing patents because their approval would be in violation of my patent. Wait... I guess that can't be retroactive. Foiled again!
