On 31 March 2009 HP settled out of court with CSIRO (the Commonwealth Scientific, Industrial and Research Organisation) for an undisclosed sum. As of 2 April 2009, CSIRO is continuing to battle global technology companies in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, for royalties over its patented wireless technology, such as Microsoft, Intel, Dell, Netgear, Toshiba, 3Com, Nintendo, Marvell and Buffalo. HP's lawyers have obviously concluded that it seems likely that CSIRO will win every case, hence the decision to settle early.

I hear they are really great and look forward to purchasing from them.
