Cabbie-What comments do ou have re Wilan's  Smart Technologies Inc case. My brief reseach shows that fitness tracking device by microsoft brand has been reported to increase from 2 billion in 2014 to 5 billionin 2019. Could this be another major case with large dollars in future.?

Save me a lot of time Astutein, what is the source of your info. I recall Smart Wearable Tech's action against Fitbit was several years ago and it was dismissed, on summary judgment, with prejudice. Dud you look for the docket on Docketbird or RPX?
Comment by astutein on Sep 24, 2021 10:29am
Cabbie-Recent Activities in RPX show Sept 12 Smart Wearable Technologies vs Fitbit Inc with notation Lawyer added)   Sept  11 Docket updated re Microsoft. As listed as current activities, I assume cases are still ongoing. Unable to find any information on docketbird.
