What's the saddest thing, is that companies actually accept to pay without testing Microsoft's theory in Court. And the more they accept, the worse is becomes for others, too. Microsoft is even being sneaky about it. I'm pretty sure Samsung wasn't at a loss financially when they accepted the deal. But it was still a big win for Microsoft, because they could then go around and tell others "Look, even Samsung paid!".
Sorry, but Microsoft is pathetic. License actual products and services like ActiveSync. Stop licensing BS patents that are useless to those companies once they pay up. What's wrong with the patent system is that companies have to pay to not get sued, not to license the technology. And why would they, when there are such BS patents.
If Microsoft has such awesome "technology" and patents, then why aren't they disclosing them so others don't have to "infringe" on them later? Yeah, because they know the patents are BS and they wouldn't stand to scrutiny even for a day.
