And so the strugle continues....Cell phone battery dead taking many valuble phone numbers with it .Home phone due off today .I have just enough bucks to cover it or buy the last few parts to make my bypass tool complete .Checing out the patent office application fees tell me I need at least $1600 to get the first one and I have 12 different ways to make it work .Being poor means your likely to stay poor .Also getting a patent is just the first step in the poker game of big biz .If you want to sell the idea any big company can take it from you claiming first negotiation rights and threaten anyone else with law suits .Some thing my dad found out the hard way .It all boils down to who has the most lawers .
