What if NewEgg offered a membership for small tech businesses? The businesses would pay $x for year, and would get either a nominal discount on orders, or cheaper shipping, or faster shipping, or a super-special support contact, or whatever. But the kicker would be that it would include patent defense insurance. Then, anytime one of those small companies would get patent trolled, NewEgg and Cheng could go to bat for them.
I'm not suggesting this should be cheap. Adjust the value of x until the scheme is appropriately profitable for NewEgg, and Cheng can keep fighting the good fight.
