Jurors in a patent infringement case before the U.S. District Court for the Virginia Eastern District in Arlington today ruled that VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) service provider Vonage Holdings Corp. infringed on three U.S. patents held by Verizon. The patents awarded to Verizon covered methods of offering commercial quality VoIP services, including wireless access to VoIP.

The jury ordered Vonage to pay $58 million in damages to Verizon for past infringement, plus a 5.5% royalty to Verizon if they continue to rely on our patents. The federal judge in this case will hold a hearing on March 23 to decide whether to issue a permanent injunction against Vonage's continued infringement on Verizon’s patents.

Мой босс был "свидетелем", его имя на этих патентах.

A friend gave me a lift home today. From Boston. To New York. In a BMW. Such a nice car, very hard suspension, but so nice anyway. Unfortunately he refused to take Jacky Robinson Parkway, so my dream of following those curves in a cool sports car is still unrealized.

He was eating while we were driving, so he asked me to shift gears for him at some point. I messed up, switched to 4 instead of 6, and tried to apologize:

- I never even touched the stick shift before... Well, now, that didn't quite sound right, but I don't know how to say it any other way.
