Our net income was US$ 122.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007... The increase in net income was primarily due to the litigation conclusion and patent license from Sony Computer Entertainment of US$ 119.9 million and the extinguishment of the liability to Microsoft of US$ 15.0 million.
Immersion believes that it is not obligated under the sublicense agreement with Microsoft to make any payment to Microsoft relating to the conclusion of its litigation with Sony Computer Entertainment. Immersion intends to defend this lawsuit vigorously. |

That's pretty ballsy for Immersion. Whether they're in the right or not, I'm still giving kudos to them for telling the sue-happy M$ which hole to put their lawsuit in.

Microsoft was in the right. It will be interesting to see if they push it further.

i bet youd say that they were in the right also for pushing a crap console whose motherboard warps and the system crashes after a few months of use.

» I do too, but here's a good question
If the money rightfully belongs to you, which seems to be the case here (Immersion does owe MS money), wouldn't you pursue it? Regardless of how much money you already have? Money is money after all, in today's world you can never have too much of it.

» Pathetic
When your net profits for a year are 90% because of lawsuits, you really shouldn't be telling someone how to litigate.
Doesn't sound like the kind of company I'd invest in. What if they didn't have anyone to sue next year?

yea i wouldnt invest into immersion too. They're too unstable and the only source of income they have is from their patents. No real advancement from immersion. Although if you count it as a long term investment, they'll probably turn rumble to force feedback or something more intense on controllers and then stock prices would go up.

» Force-feedback patent by Immersion is still valid?
So, this all means that people, or industry, still think the Immersion patent is valid?
While there is prior art for the force-feedback concept in numerous movies and series before Immersion filed their patent?

Can QJ.net setup a ip ban on people LIKE xman who continue to post pointless comments? Not like a ban from the site, just prevent them from posting comments.

» Wow...
I'm somewhat confused right now by this xman vs. xman thing going on right now lol (But I can guess who's the real one that laughs at Sony like an loser). Guys, can't we all just get along? By the way, to whichever xman that posted the comment seems to suggest that people who like PS3's can't spell, I've got a PS3 lol andt i cabn tipe gould (rofl, I DO have a PS3 though, I prefer it over the 360). Also, to stay on topic: Microsoft, I don't quite understand why you're making a lawsuit against Immersion... maybe I missed something when I first read the article. Also, I don't know if this is of any importance to the story, but didn't Sony create a gaming console that used rumble before Microsoft did? I'm really confused right now...
