I wonder whether the recommendation at the very end, about starving patent trolls of lawyer resources, is more or less viable now than it was five years ago. Although there are certainly plenty of megafirms, I'm not sure that the legal world is coherent enough for that to be a great strategy. Plus you need maybe two full-time lawyers and twice that many paralegals to operate on the Lodsys level of suing smaller developers and working your way up.
Patent trolls, like terrorists, take advantage of asymmetric resource usage. So trying to attack their supply of lawyer resources might not work.
