    The America Invents Act changes things: 1) not disclosing best mode will not cause you to risk losing the patent, 2) not correctly indicating the inventors will also not cause you the same risk (in Section 20 of the bill, all language referring to “deceptive intent” has been erased), 3) under First-to-File, your risk of disclosing your invention confidentially greatly increases. The new laws are bad for independent inventors and good for vested interests and those who intend to deceive.

    Conclusion:

    Patent is only for big companies that afford big legal fee. Even your claim is granted, other companies can steal your idea. If you don’t have millions of $ to sue them, just shut up and watch them making big $, and you get NOTHING.

    So, why bother to spend $25k to hire a patent attorney to file your application when patent cannot really protect you?

    Do you really think Apple will give you licensing fee if they think your patent is good for their new products?

    If the government objects to monopoly prices for new inventions, it should stop granting patents.

    I have a major Doubt, what if the Attorney leaks my Idea, so some one else will get the patent, just before me, due to the attorney’s cunningness.

    I suppose all Patent attorney’s will be having good links with corporate industries and big figures, so he will get a huge ransom, if he leaks some others Idea to these industries..so they will have the patent legally, as if they invented it.

    So i suppose, If one has the Idea – one has to do all the work himself totally, finally contact a Attorney

    The Railhead Manufacturing case that you mentioned in which the provisional application does not satisfy 112, is that a typical case or an extraordinary case? How often are patents invalidated based on 112 support in the provisional or is it that the patent invention is no longer novel after relying on the non-provisional filing date rather than the provisional filing date?

    First, great discussion. Really helped me clarify my understanding of how to read a patent / from a drafting perspective.

    Question RE: Public Disclosure -
    As the internet continues to capture and catalog every comment and thought that we all have, how will the courts determine if the published ramblings of the masses constitute a “publication” of the idea, thereby preventing patenting and inhibiting the incentive for the hard work of bringing the idea(s) to market?

    Thank you.

    Unused patents can be sold:
    whynot. net/ideas/3553

    “Part of the reason for so many unused patents is that firms do not realise that their patents may have value to others. The patent itself may be of little use to the firm that invented it (the invention may have been ‘accidental’) and therefore they just sit on it unaware that others might like to use it. Some companies are now realising this and are offering unwanted patents for sale through patent auction websites.”

    Problem solved.
