Wrinkle in U-NII Expansion Plans
11/13/2003 02:51 PM Dewayne Hendricks noticed an interesting omission from the agenda of
the FCC's Open Meeting today: Commissioners had planned to discuss
adding 255 MHz to the 5 GHz band and Hendricks says observers expected
the item to pass. But the item was dropped from the agenda. Wonder
why... That additional 255 MHz should translate into as many as 12
additional nonoverlapping channels for 802.11a, which already has 12
nonoverlapping channels. In a talk with Atheros that Glenn had
recently, the company noted that bonding channels in 802.11a to create
multiple channel throughput of 108 Mbps or higher has enormous
potential because of the lack of channel overlap....
That Microsoft XML Patent
That Microsoft XML Patent
06/05/2005 11:19 PMThe coverage from ZDNet says the patent is for the
conversion of objects into XML files; but if you read the patent itself, the important “Claim 1” doesn’t even
mention XML, it’s just about serializing objects based on using an
annotated source file and a schema. I was trying to find a way to
write about this without becoming shrill and using bad language, but
failing. Fortunately, I ran across a good opinion, shrill but not
obscene, penned by Greg
Aharonian who’s a real actual patent lawyer and thus qualified.
Herewith a little bit of my own shrillness, followed by Greg’s
professional evisceration of this extreme case of patent bogosity.

07/07/2004 09:40 AMEncinitas inventor William Louis has been fighting Microsoft Corp.
since 1998 over patents for ergonomic keyboards – with very little
success. Yesterday, he finally had something to smile about. A federal
appeals court resurrected Louis' long-running federal lawsuit accusing
the software company of patent infringement. In the decision by the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the court said a U.S.
District Court judge in San Diego made a mistake when she ruled that
patents held by TypeRight Keyboard Corp. for V-shaped keyboards with
wrist rests were invalid. Louis co-founded TypeRight in the early
'90s.
