I'm reading. . .
ETA:
Okay, _that_ was short. It's three pages mostly establishing jurisdiction, naming kindle and kindle 2 as infringing on the named patent, saying it was willful, asking for triple damages, court costs, etc. and anything else the court is willing to turn over.
I don't know how this stuff works, but this seems like a trial (er) balloon to me. I'm no longer impressed by the lawyers involved.
ETAYA:
Okay, my ignorance is showing once again. I'm still awaiting confirmation from one of my lawyer relatives, however surfing patent infringement filings on Justia suggests that _all_ infringement suits start _exactly_ this way. Back to being impressed that Discovery hired the big guns.
