Now this is a story to say that the "cat is out of the hat" because you just can’t hide this one.  In their always TRUE newsbreaking manner, Engadget AGAIN has a top story…and this one was huge! Just imagine, a company spending mucho buckos for a major show and then after it is set up to be forced to take it all down when the law shows up with an injunction….whoa!

I would love to be a fly on the boardroom wall tomorrow morning!  So anyway, here is a picture that Engadget had and a small snipit of what they had to say.  Click the link below to read their BREAKING NEWS item.

 

SanDisk busted at IFA, forced to take down display DAPs

by Evan Blass

Now we’ve never actually manufactured a product ourselves, but if we had, and we were showing off said product at a major European trade show, we’d be mighty embarrassed if a bunch of lawyer-types showed up at our expensive booth and told us to stash the goods out of public view. Well apparently that’s exactly what happened to Sansa-manufacturer SanDisk over the weekend at Berlin’s IFA exhibition, after an Italian patent management company called Sisvel convinced a German prosecutor to issue an injunction against the US’s number two DAP seller.
