I have received an email from Patent Free LED.com which gives us far more detail about the impending court case that Lite PANELS are bringing in the USA as it’s a web site with a lot of information I will give you the link.
I still don’t see what benefits this law suite has to offer VITEC as a group but to alienate a lot of customers, especially American customers.
I presume Vitec launched its patent court case in the US as the presumably the UK would reject it as it is so painfully wrong – speaking as a UK citizen I am embarrassed by the action of this company and hope that the US patent office sees this as a genuine ripoff and rejects it and things begin to return to normal. A few years ago Europe tried to increase import taxes on HD cameras and after a campaign by manufacturers and users it was rejected.
