I agree about the out come.  We almost bought a Icamp Camper right before finding the Rpod.  They had some really neat features but a few items worried us.  One was not many where over here in the states so I was not sure if something major happened to them would it get rapaired, the second was a lack of a real bed.  I'm not sure totally how I would have liked the table bed.  ]]> Tue, 12 Jan 2010 12:10:48 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1021&PID=8986#8986 Forest River sues Heartland over the MPG : RPodcamper, I spoke with Heartland... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1021&PID=8978#8978 Author: David and Danette

   RPodcamper , I spoke with Heartland and they told me the MPG should be avilable to be delivered to the dealers in Febuary. As far as design, lightbulbs look alike I think that camping trailers at times may look alike. There is only so much space to work with in a small trailer as far as design goes. Time will tell what the outcome will be, it sounds like a waist of money on legal fees.  David]]> Tue, 12 Jan 2010 10:43:54 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1021&PID=8978#8978 Forest River sues Heartland over the MPG : Nice show going on!Terry https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1021&PID=8977#8977 Author: TerryM

I'm thinking it may be wise to find out if any have rolled to the dealers yet.  I'm strongly wanting to get one.  ]]> Mon, 11 Jan 2010 22:25:51 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1021&PID=8972#8972 Forest River sues Heartland over the MPG : David, to tell you the truth,... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1021&PID=8965#8965 Author: Outbound

David, to tell you the truth, I've only been following RV Daily Report for the past 4 months.  I'm not really familiar with the lawsuits.

But, I did just stumble across Heartland sues Forest River over Improved Turning Radius Patent.  It looks like these two companies may be locked in an eternal battle over IP.

I'm with techntrek: pop some popcorn, open a frosty one and sit back and watch the action.

Thanks, Outbound.  That's interesting.  I haven't been keeping up on the RV sites like I should....any idea what happened with the other two lawsuits mentioned?
 
Hope to see you "out there"
