Speaking of litigation and technology:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/23/AR2007032300
986.html

"A federal judge yesterday dealt a potentially fatal blow to Vonage
Holdings, the Internet-phone service that offers one of the few alternatives
to traditional carriers, by ordering it to stop using a technology that
connects its network to the public telephone system.

U.S. District Judge Claude Hilton approved the request by Verizon
Communications for a permanent injunction two weeks after a jury in
Alexandria found that three of its patents had been infringed by Vonage,
including one for the technology allowing the Internet company's 2.2 million
customers to call regular phones."

What's that slogan from their ads? One smart move . . .

With the possible exception of yourself, I'd imagine that everyone was
aware that he was making a sales pitch, given the number of pitches you make
yourself, I'm surprised that such things bother you
