Can you imagine having to sit through that every day for a living? No wonder lawyers are so expensive.

Never-the-less this is a heavy hitting response from Hyperion!

@Thread

It's clear that every contact Amiga(Delaware) Inc/KMOS/ITEC have had with this community since the last 'Ask Fleecy' have been all about manipulation and fraud.

All these bizarre little contacts with 'the community' since Amiga.orgs 25 questions are starting to make a lot more sense now.

We now know that the strange request for people who bought A1200s in the nineties and beyond to help Bill McEwen was all about manipulating a future court case. This makes a lot of sense since Jens revealed A(Delaware)'s lack of IP.

As was the strange Pianeta audio address and the even stranger Temple of Technology interview.

Anyone who doesn't believe that the Amiga/ACK thing is not just a continuation of this pathetic manipulation must be naive in the extreme.

Yea, they've gone nuclear.

They mention a Singapore company Tapul S.A., never heard of them, but googling there was a hit on Ann.lu in the news item "AInc vs Garry Hare":

http://www.ann.lu/comments2.cgi?show=1161197009&category=news&number=4

Quote:
*** May 10, 2004: The Singaporean company Tapul S.A. buys KMOS share for $1,000,000. The agreement is centered on OS4, claiming among other things:
""KMOS Inc. plans to generate revenue by licensing OS4 to manufacturers and vendors of Smart cell phones, PDA's, gaming devices, set top boxes and other devices that require an operating system.""
""KMOS Inc. has reason to believe that OS4 has many attributes that give it a competitive edge to competitive operating systems, such as Windows or Linux based solutions, or Symbian.""
""KMOS Inc. plans to hire additional management, marketing and software engineering resources as required to get OS4 into the market.""
""[Tapul S.A.] is an accredited investor who has conducted all necessary due diligence regarding, amongst others, the business potential of OS4 ...""


Garry Hare was hired on the condition he generate $X? million in investment in KMOS.

Hyperion says KMOS (Hare) committed fraud by misrepresenting ownership of OS4 to Tapul SA.

Now it get's interesting...

KMOS itself has ALSO made this claim about Garry Hare! (that he commited fraud by misrepresenting assets)

Quote:
""Hare also claimed to potential investors that Amiga owned a 'killer' application, the product 'Noids', and sought funding for the development of the Noids product. Amiga, however, had no agreement with Noids and was not in the business of developing or promoting Noids.
Amiga later learned that Noids was a product apparently owned and developed by Hare for his personal benefit only, and that Hare, without the Company's knowledge or approval, directed and utilized Company employees and resources to develop Noids on Company time to the Company's material detriment.""

It's the kind of thing that can happen if you sit in a draft or on a damp chair at work.

Some documents from the Hare vs. Amiga, Inc lawsuit suggest it.

Probably this?

Quote:
July 28, 2005: KMOS Chairman Pentti Kouri in e-mail to Garry Hare: ""I am not pleased that after almost two million dollars of funding from Tapul and Itec, Amiga has not been able to obtain funding from outside investors. Itec is willing to fund the company a while longer, but will do so on basis of an agreement that gives Itec a much tighter control of the management of the company.""


So much for KMOS misrepresenting assets to Tapul.

Hyperion's lawyers HAVE to have known that, wonder what response they're fishing for here?

Did some one say pizza?! Dominos pizza.... eh....? no?? Dang, guess I'll go back to lurking then.

I can see that proving fraud on Amiga Inc's part probably helps Hyperion's case to win their "Perpetual OS4 License", but how that translates in to owning Amiga IP escapes me. (but so does calculus)

(where's that number to place a phone order...? pizza, pizza, pizza.... )

Wow,
This justs better and better. Unfortunately, we're the ones to suffer. Kinda makes you feel a bit unappreciated eh?

That 'Noids' makes me wonder. Was it something really vapour, when read like 'no ideas'? Was GH just playing with words and acronyms?

Just a thought.

They have to. They have to go for the 'kill' so to speak as it is the only way the Amiga has any chance of getting out of this one.

They have to, for Hyperion this is life and death, not win or loose.
