I agree Jed. Also, cold fusion devices do not appear to have the complexity of design that can be hidden from duplication. I suspect that the competition in this field will be extremely fierce and the price will reflect that condition. It would not surprise me to see certain groups attempting to get more protection than they deserve to guarantee their profits, but this will be a futile attempt. They would be better served to realize that the money will be earned by the companies that produce good solid but inexpensive units.
I think that DGT is making a big mistake by adding all of the IP protection equipment to their products. If is fallacy to increase the cost by a factor of 2 by attempting to keep secrets that can never be effective. Rossi has the correct idea when he states that he plans to defeat the competition by making his products and fuel cells inexpensive. Perhaps the pioneers in the industry will be well served by a license process. As long as they are reasonable, they will do well. Any attempt to corner the market will be tossed into the "ash heap of history" that we keep hearing about.

Again. I do not worry about that. That's silly. That would be like worrying in 1975 that microcomputer software will be developed by the wrong people. Who would worry that the whole field might be dominated by an anti-social Harvard dropout geek who cares nothing about quality control, and whose goal is to make billions of dollars by controlling your desktop, your computer, your telephone, your sex life and . . . and . . . Oh my God! It's a nightmare. No! I'm having a flashback. This is PTSD. Seriously, cold fusion is much too big to be controlled by any nation, any group, or according to any agenda. It is the biggest thing since fire. Also, unlike MS-DOS or Windows, cold fusion is not a natural monopoly that works best with a single standard set by some guy in Seattle. - Jed
