Markman Decision Announced

,----[ Quote ]
| The importance of any Markman decision is twofold. First, it provides the 
| definitions for terms that are in dispute between the parties. The 
| definitions provided by the Court must be used at trial – the parties 
| typcially cannot re-litigate the definitions before trial. Second, it reviews 
| the claims of the patent in light of certain challenges from the opposing  
| party, and the result of that review may be fatal to certain patent claims.
