This seems like very good news. Apple should throw a few tens of millions at this. Think of it; if Apple could somehow manage to kill patent trolling and deter it in the future, that could be of as much benefit to the computing world as iCloud, iOS and the iPad put together.
You know there's something wrong with your perspective when you think that iCloud, iOS and the iPad put together are more beneficial to the computing world than eliminating patent trolling.
