I am writing an article on the legal effects of Rite-Hite and King
Instruments. As a practical matter, I believe that this case's holding
will encourage big corporation (with multiple patents in a given field)
to sit on their patented inventions, while continuing to make and sell
Products in public domain. This might be because any infringement of
their patented invention will lead to lost profits on all of their
competing products, while competition for the public domain product will
be tougher for competitors to overcome (since the Patent Holder will have
established its presence and name-recognition in the given market). And,
this is effectively a monopoly, not beneficial to the general public.
Any other thoughts??? Please send me email at a_bajaj@easyway.net
