Claiming that the Wii utilizes their patent on small capacitors in a semi-conducting circuit, Lone Star, a company based out of an Austin, Texas law firm, is suing Nintendo in the hallowed Federal Eastern District of Texas courts. Known for its ultra-plaintiff friendly patent decisions, the Eastern District has seen many patent infringement cases, including the American Video Graphics lawsuit covered in my first blog entry (second for those who are counting). Nintendo was, of course, unaware of any such infringement. Lone Star has been successful against other industry big wigs like Texas Instrument and Broadcom, but it is unclear how successful they will be here. Looks like another, "this patent is too complicated, and I (Nintendo) would have to give up too many secrets...I'll just settle." --> Trollery at its finest.

Hello all! I have a underground tattoo business in Toronto. Since 2002 I've been purchasing all tattoo stuff at really low prices but my supplier got jailed (yeah, hard to believe) so I'm looking for a low cost tattoo equipment company (preferable online) to buy tattoo equipment from. Here is an example of what I am interested in: Tattoo Equipment. Thanks a million in advance for any information guys! PM me or drop me some lines at: triple6tattoo@hotmail.com
