    TiVo's contempt motion is out

    With all due respect, I have no interest in discussing this case with you here. If I did, I would do so on the other site. I only got involved in this thread because a comment was made that dish would easily win, they may win, they may not, but it is far from a sure thing.

    TiVo's contempt motion is out

    I agree with your point, if dish isn't infringing they win. But they have already been found to infringe. Maybe the court will decide that they are no longer infringing but maybe the court will rule that the injunction has nothing to do with software or hardware but rather devices that needed...

    TiVo's contempt motion is out

    Im not sure how you can say so easily that DISH will win. Maybe they will, I have no idea but the tivo motion makes some points that refute your logic: "EchoStar's argument relies on the fiction that the Adjudicated Receivers morphed into "new" products as a result of an alleged software...

    DISH Network and EchoStar Statement Regarding Tivo

    It would actually be the same appellate level court, all patent cases go to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. If the district court in texas rules on the new software issue, its not clear if they will, the result would carry over because of res judicata and...

    Echostar Responds to Tivo Ruling

    Most of the drop was from Echostar's weaker 3Q07 net subscriber additions (+110K) and higher churn (1.7%). My valuation prices dish at 51, so I agree, good time to buy.

    TIVO lawsuit update

    The court was saying that they could not sustain the verdict because of improper jury instructions, not based upon the standard. Either way, Tivo would need to seek a new trial.

    TIVO lawsuit update

    Fair enough, we'll disagree. The doctrine of equivalents allows the court to find infringement even if the device does not fall within the scope of the patent but is still equivalent to the patented product. There are two tests: 1. An invention is deemed equivalent if: a. it performs...

    TIVO lawsuit update

    "we could uphold the judgment on the basis of the doctrine of equivalents only if we were to conclude that no reasonable jury, given proper instructions, could reach any verdict other than to find infringement by equivalents. The parties, however, have not briefed that issue in any detail, and...

    TIVO lawsuit update

    The opinion from the appeals court has no effect on the success of the hardware case. Did you read it? All it did was clarify the standard to be used to determine infringement. How many times do I have to repeat that in this case the burden is on dish to prove they are not infringing...

    TIVO lawsuit update

    They can drag it out all they want, the software claim is as good as over. It will not be up to Tivo to prove anything in re. the new software. The burden of proof is on Echostar.

    Echostar Responds to Tivo Ruling

    This would be humorous if I wasn't an echostar shareholder. I am very pissed with Charlie. He is in complete denial. This is terrible news for Echostar, they are going to end up paying tivo over 100 million and could have ended this years ago for much less. This press release is so...
