Sometimes I wonder why we learn about these patents because somebody digs the info out of patent database. Would it be giving away too much information for Mannkind to issue some sort press release stating that they were granted a patent, and maybe they could give some info on what they plan to do with it?

Sure the patent was given, but this is nothing new.
No. It's not worthy of a press release.

Yep. I check regularly for new patents. The patent efforts have slowed down considerably in the last few months.
Patents and patent protection is very important, but if we can't find interested partners in TS... not so much.
The company has rightly focus on sales, but I don't want to see patents completely ignored. They are relatively inexpensive. The patent mentioned demonstrates their past efforts, not what they are working on today. If nothing new is happening I'd consider than a large negative and a huge warning sign.
Unfortunately, the situation looks so poor I not sure it matters anymore...

If we wait for a major news release that's press worthy, who knows when that'll be. So even if we just get a press release about something like this patent and what they plan to do with it, it'll at least be SOME type of news. Instead, investors have just been left in the dark. No one knows what's going on anymore.

Only thing saving company will be sales. I wish we didn't have these daily patents threads. Means nothing to have when you don't have sales to save the company. I ask the moderators to move these threads or combine them.
