Rambus and NVIDIA a bit closer to patent resolution

Posted on Friday, March 05 2010 @ 17:30 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck
Engadget reports about the latest development in the patent battle between Rambus and NVIDIA. One and a half claims of Rambus got rejected, and NVIDIA says it plans yet another appeal.
If you need a refresher, way back in 2008 Rambus accused NVIDIA of illicitly using five of its patents, and most recently a judge ruled that only three of those five had been violated. Now two more patents have fallen off the legal wagon, with the US Patent and Trademark Office indicating that only one of the three remaining was a true violation, a second was rejected, and a third got a mixed ruling.
