It added that the patents had been sold and any damages awarded should reflect that market value. The patent package is believed to have been sold for $5m.
If the patent package was recently sold, doesn't that do a pretty good job of establishing the value of the patents, and thus, the appropriate judgment against Apple?

What would the idea of the iPod have been worth in the 90s? The then value of Apple's consumer electronics sales (ie 0) or the current and future value of Apple?
