My understanding is that many places believe that you shouldn't do patent searches at all when developing a new technology because if it can be shown that you did it can be shown that you should have been aware of the patent and now you are willfully infringing so damages go way up. And with people patenting one-click and other nonsense you really can't do much of anything without violating some sort of overly broad patent. -- Tracy Reed http://tracyreed.org
