This is indeed true. What is needed for a long term solution is to fix incentives. In the sense that it shows patent trolls that there is at least some risk involved to their dirty game, the Newegg verdict does that a little bit. Real reform must come from (a) Washington and/or (b) multiple companies banding together into industry associations to fight the trolls. The patent trolls have made tens of billions at this point - around $20B last year alone in fact. They have deep pockets and will not go away easily. It will take a real fight to change things, and it will require the support of many industry players.
