Can't disagree on the advice, but not sure how you achieve the "Cheap" part. Lawyers make a lot more than I do. http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2003-11-26/ It would seem that you need someone, preferably with an undergraduate in computer science, that specializes in intellectual property and software. My brother in law who specializes in family law and juvenile delinquents may not be able to give a better opinion than I could. If someone read that patent, thought about it, analyzed my app and the Market, and wrote a reply to LodeSys, that might take 12+ hours at $300/hr. At that point, it's probably cheaper just to give the money to LodeSys (not that I think that is the right thing to do on principle). If your lawyer does a good job, I might hire him. Seeing as he will have already read the patent, maybe I can save some hours. Nathan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
