Verizon Patents - Next Round

April 23rd, 2007 by Carolyn Schuk

As predicted, “prior art” has been found for the patents that Verizon claims that Vonage has infringed on. Fierce VoIP’s Dan Rosenbaum noted it this morning. It’s a USENET post from 1995 describing the connection of calls between the Internet and the PSTN. The author, Jack Decker, says in his introduction, I want to go on record as proposing this now so that when someone gets the bright idea in a few
months or years, I can point to this as ‘prior art.’”

Let the fun begin.
