Just a quick note here: using != abusing.

I agree that the patent system is broken as is, but there needs to be a mechanism protecting the intellectual property that allows companies to share their innovations with the world without fear of them being stolen (copying is cheap).

Are any of the patents currently being used in litigation against Android not bullshit? Really, is there even one?
