Visual Voice Mail lawsuit seeks $360 Million

Seeking $360 Million in damages Klausner Technologies Inc has sued Apple, AT&T, EBay, Comcast & Cablevision Systems Corp over Klausner's patent of technology that by allows users to selectively retrieve and listen to voice messages via message inbox displays.

*sigh*

Yet another case *cough* one-click-buy *cough* of someone holding a patent that falls under the "duh obvious" category. It's the email version of voice mail for pete's sake.

These are the same people who sued Vonage. Along with AOL they are now a licensee of Klausner's voicemail technology for its Vonage Voicemail Plus service according to Klausner.
