I don't know how to answer the poll based on the ambiguous premise.

Oh, and providing more evidence for option 3, It should be "On-topic" and "Off-topic." Read the question as "Is this on-topic"?

I think I even answered my own poll wrong. *sigh*
Time, I think, for additional caffeine resources.

Can a mod merge this with solarion's thread in General? It really isn't Off Topic, and I sooo want to thank some sensible posts...
I've updated my previous post to include some more information.

Not desperation at all-- companies must defend their patents or risk losing the value of them.

IP is what makes any company worth something. Nokia needs to be sure that there has been a violation before you sue someone. I have to say it is quite ballsy to knowingly infringe on patents on your core devices.

couldn't be the company's intellectual property by any chance, could it?
not to mention IP itself can be sold as a product... as in "licensing" something

(oh, and I won't be confusing any IP protection mechanisms-- I'm well-versed in all of them
