It sounds like they didn't just want some money. They wanted them to use their chip or partner with them.
I am no Apple fan, but telling them to politely fuck off seems reasonable to me.

- themaninthedark 3y agoThe way I read this is, Masimo does not have confidence in the way Apple has implemented the technology and they don't want their name attached to a bad implementation. So they are giving Apple the choice of either buying a turnkey solution or partner with them to fix Apple's flawed implementation.
- doix 3y agoYeah, and I think that's bullshit. If the implementation is so bad, then how is it infringing on the patent? You can't have it both ways in my opinion. I hope they go to court and lose.
- hasty_pudding 3y agoAh thanks for the info, That makes a lot of sense.
