Nice one Google. Those 6,000 patents aren't worth more pie than it should - good job at making other companies waste money. 
I don't think Nortel Network's patents are worth that much : their last year's financial earnings are only 620m in revenue, so at most we can give it a 200% inflation to 1.24b. 4.5b is ridiculous.

Someone is an ace E-bay troll bidder and sublimely brilliant - especially if it so easily confused competitive bidders.
In other odd/silly news, the Pope put out his own "first tweet" - filmed of course for the news.
