I can't actually disagree with that. Of course if this precedent is used, then a whole HELL of a lot of patented stuff shouldn't be patented.

I've said if before, and I'll say it again. A patent should ONLY be granted in the presence of a WORKING prototype or model.

You don't slavishly copy another company's hard work to bring a unique product to market without having to pay the price.

No class.
