They'll never be able to stop the sale of the PS3 and both sides know it.

The real reason for filing a lawsuit like this one is in the hopes of getting a large cash settlement, which will probably be the case. Sony's defense is weak on this one. They've got the company cornered on a technicality.

Even if this blows over, I wonder how the PS3 sales will be affected by this.

Not too positively, I'm guessing.
it wont affect it at all

companies sue each other over patent issues all the time

the cell phone companies seem to be the worst when it comes to this

Sony Bravias have long been infamous for QC issues. I hope you enjoy the TV you might just have to send back, maybe even multiple times.

I'm going to file a patent for "a thing sold to consumers" and then file trademark claims against everyone.

Korean company LG wants Sony's PlayStation 3 and Bravia tellys banned in the US for what it claims are patent infringements relating to Blu-ray playback.

I want a trillion dollars, but we can't always have what we want.

Sony didn't start this. LG did.

That seems like it. Haha

I had to laugh. The PS3 gets hacked, and now it may be pulled off shelves until the Blu-ray aspect of it is removed. PS3 could even loose the case against their hacked systems because of this. All in good timing.

these types of cases almost always get settled outside of court for an undisclosed amount of money
