There needs to be a limitation on the time a company can wait to sue another over a patent infringement. These companies are waiting until the technology is popular (5-10 years) then suing the infringing company, therefore taking the customers the infringing company had to originally get themselves. The infringing companies did all the leg work and the patent holders just waited. Most of the time the infringing companies had no idea a patent existed.
This country needs a "You snooze, you lose" law that basically states: If you don't take care of a patent infringement within a specified time, YOUR BURNT!!!
