Seems to me that the companies that are settling are doing it prematurely.

Unless I'm mistaken, there has not yet been a single adjudication of the validity of the acacia patent.

My bet is that it will be held invalid due to prior art.

And when it is ruled invalid the companies that settled will be toast in the adult webmaster community.

Absolute toast. Those of you that are settling this early should be thinking about your new names and corporate identities right now.

Right now I'm off to watch the video clip on CNN.com of the martian robot.
