Re: anyone have any advice about patents
Well I went to the lawyer and put down the $800 for the patent search, just the first step in a $4000 to $5000 trail. When I got done with the prototype I felt like a genius. Now I feel like a silly gambler in Vegas. I realize even if the thing proves to be the best, knocking away the comptetion and bringing the thing to a national market is a daunting task. I'll reveal the details as soon as the patent is applied for. I still believe it's the best and am sure I would live to regret not pursuing it. Though now I realize big time I may yet live to regret trying this risk as well.
