A Patent Lawer in the US easily costs serveral hundert $/hour. Their
strategy might be that this effort is too big for most of us.
(Especially from Europe / laguage barrier) So after reading
http://www.lodsys.com/1/post/2011/05/q-what-are-you-charging.html i
was thinking if the easiest way to sleep better ist, ask them what you
have to paid for the past and future use.
In case you removed the Button it would be the question how to the
know how many apps you have sold in the US. If you sold you app like
500 times for 2 $ this might be a very small amount of money you have
to spend. The Question remains it this is legit because their claim
that even a link to the Market violates one of their patents is kind
of odd, because than you can claim that exact case for every website
linking to a Commercial Item like Amazon links oder whatsover. Same
Mechanism. The Button in you game is only a HTTP Link to a Android
Market website. No Strings attached.
Next question qould be hwo to contact them, and how fast do they respond.
Anybody experienced a solution that was heading for a licening ?
