Stalkervision,
Į mešan ÉG don't efi the einlęgni af žinn tilfinningažrunginn staša hver opinberlega kalla inn ķ spurning the ešli af óįkvešinn greinir ķ ensku allur organization, ef ekki viss einstaklingur innan žessi organization, hafa žś alltaf yfirvegašur a
įstęša val: žinn hugmynd had žegar been hugsun af viš einstaklingur žjįlfašur ķ the list.
Traust mig,
einkaleyfi er a meš harmkvęlum erfišur, dżr, og framlengja ašferš, hrķfandi margir įr til framkvęma ( mikill af žaš į bak viš the skikkja af leynd jafnvel įšur óįkvešinn greinir ķ ensku umsókn er ). Hver er hvers vegna ÉG styšja og virša the fyrirtęki og žeirra vara žessi hafa ķ gegnum this ašferš og ekki virša the sjįlfur hver tilraun til stuttur- skera/ hunsa/ virša the ašferš.
ÉG vilja gengi a faglegur reynsla viš had hvenęr okkar fyrirtęki began the einkaleyfi ašferš fremstur til the selja og markašssetning af Blęja.
Einn af okkar law firms were brought into a defense of (in this particular case) a baseless (for obvious reason) claim that [some] our ideas were similar/same to someone else's a (long time ago.)
It happens all the time with R&D, new product development, and patenting...that's why the
USPTO is in the business they're in...to sort through all of this stuff and (hopefully) make the proper dispositions that they do (at great expense, I might add, to the underlying inventors).
Whistler has a lot of smart people working in their engineering departments (Mike, of course being one of them). To this I believe (from my own dealings with them) they operate with moral/ethical
clarity and I believe those beliefs are being manifested in the current products like the
Whistler Pro 78 and
Whistler XTR-690.
In my review of these fine radar detectors, I described them as
honest performers, because they
are. I believe such products can only come from a corporate culture that has this moral/ethical clarity. This is my belief.
Forgive me stalker, but I would be surprised & disappointed, if your belief (impassioned and sincere as it may be) wasn't entirely accurate or is representative of the whole/entire story (from
all sides).
There are at least two sides to every story.
At any rate, good luck with your new idea...I hope you are successful with it!
Peace be the journey...
