But the PTO is somewhat of a..err..mess? And patent law is worse than tax law. This one does seem sad to me for the exact reasons you say Jeremy. CompareRewards had a bit more <a href="http://www.comparerewards.com/archives/004261.html" target="blank" rel="nofollow">info about these suits</a>. Seems this isn't the first time Source Inc has done this. I was wondering why some notable companies weren't on the list, like UPromise. Source Inc already played with them in 2004.

Even if these companies aren't found to be violating the patent it will cost them thousands - (if not more) - to deal with this mess. Very sad...
