VentureBeat: Discovery’s Patent Lawsuit Could Reveal Kindle Sales

    So, the ebook was patented two years ago? Really? No prior art before 2005 when the patent was first filed? I find that a little hard to believe.

    I'm sure a Google search would find prior art in about five minutes...

    This is a |war" between giants of hitech indutries. For me, this problem can be settled out of court if only the two warring parties agreed to it. They should not shell out money for litigation purposes but to a peaceful process. As I understood this problem, this has something to do with "similar" features. Hmmm, sometimes ego can be disturbing too if not properly moderated. No wonder this world is nowhere to go because -> for just a "simple" misunderstanding, good camaraderie will "vanished" in a flash.

    Doesn't Sony already have a book reader out? Not like the Kindle was a totally new concept. Just a better one! I have a Kindle 2 and cannot put it down! :)
