I don't know whether withholding one would be classed as anti-competitive behaviour or not, there is something about patents not being used to stifle technological developement. However those are UK things, so there may not be equivilants in the US legal system.

Rather slim, I would imagine.

I guess we shall see sp ship guns with the bits that are affected by the patnents missing, and perhaps people wacking in morlock boards, it's only for 15 years anyway:cool:

I think you'll find that sp will get a licence from wdp, and continue supplying their products, with maybe a "little" price increase..:)
