主题：楼氏急了

前车之鉴!

和楼氏的代理律师事务所联系了一下，给我发了一份扫描的起诉书。文件较长，又是律师写的。所以只能看个大概。楼氏在苏州的老大合同到期后去了AAC，这个家伙居然跟楼氏承认向AAC泄密。不知道老外都怎么想的，这下AAC麻烦大了。

那老外也太搞笑了吧？？

关注中

知识产权官司,国内的企业跟国外的企业打,输多胜少!

"落后就要挨打"

关键是官司发生在美国，要花掉大把的钱啊！！！

原来苏州楼氏的老大叫什么名字？不是个中国人吗？

真的、假的？

不止楼氏一家作吧，丹麦有家Sonion (www.sonion.com)也作硅麦的，而且尺寸只有楼氏的1/6左右。目前也在和一些欧洲大厂合作。很有竞争力的。

不知道现在结果怎样呢？

AAC在今年年初已经完全胜诉了！

各位可以去AAC官方网站看看！

www.aacelectr.com

AAC会恶有恶报的

就凭那几句话就断定AAC胜诉恐怕太武断了，上市公司的新闻要仔细捉摸。

据AAC说是胜诉了。

商场是最黑暗的地方!

   圈子就这么大，工程师辞职以后肯定要去别的公司了，什么技术，客户资源当然是拿来主义了。 目前硅麦量产的还挣不多，但是有点实力的公司都在进行样品试产。

   现在信息交流这么发达， 你今天捣鼓出一个新技术，明天大家都知道了。

AAC的硅麦还没量产

楼氏告了 谁敢用啊 楼氏这一招狠 不管官司如何 先拖

兹提述 AAC Acoustic Technologies Holdings Inc .（「AAC」）于二零零六年十一月二十一日发出之公布, AAC于二零零七年三月九日今日宣布,美国伊利诺伊州北部地区法院否决 Knowles Electronics , LLC （「Knowles」）寻求禁制生产 MEMS 传声器而提出初步禁制令之动议。法院裁断 Knowles 未能提供颇能成立之充分理据。AAC 对结果表示满意，并计划于MEMS 传声器市场中全面公平竞争。(2007-03-09)

An Open Letter to Those Concerned About Piracy in International Trade

Knowles Electronics is the world's leading manufacturer of high performance, subminiature microphones and speakers serving a variety of applications and markets. For more than fifty years, Knowles has researched, designed, developed and delivered technologically advanced acoustic products that improve people's lives.

Like many other companies in a broad range of industries, we operate in a highly competitive global environment. In this regard, the key to our ongoing success is innovation - developing ever more sophisticated technologies that fulfill market needs and keep us at the forefront of our core markets.

Knowles welcomes vigorous competition in the global economy but that competition must be based on fairness. Fairness is also the basis of international law governing fair trade, intellectual property, capital formation and investment. In the end, there must be common rules of ethics and fairness if there are to be the benefits of international trade, economic development, improved standards of living, and closer socio-economic ties throughout the world.

It is within this overall context that Knowles has initiated a lawsuit in US Federal Court against American Audio Components (AAC) and a series of other defendants, which we allege have conspired to pirate successful manufacturing choices and procedures, production specifications, key employees, vendors and pricing.

The technology at issue relates to a silicon microphone which consists of a semiconductor element, a microphone diaphragm made of silicon produced using the Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, or "MEMS," process, and a unique and proprietary packaging system combining all in a single device.

Silicon microphone technology integrating MEMS is rapidly replacing the traditional microphone used in devices such as cellular telephones, digital cameras, PDAs, laptops and other consumer electronic devices on a global scale.

We have invested multiple millions of dollars and years of man hours researching and developing a technology deemed to be "disruptive" by the industry, and is a revolution in its field - a complete departure from prior technology - not simply an updated version or generation of the prior product. The MEMS microphone technology improves manufacturability, environmental stability and reliability, and reduces assembly costs while significantly reducing the size of the microphone.

In this case, AAC has engaged in a purposeful concert of actions to obtain the secrets of this new disruptive MEMS microphone technology amd its successful packaging. AAC has chosen to accomplish this not through fair competition or its own research and development. Rather, AAC has engaged in a devious plot to improperly obtain Knowles' trade secrets and proprietary information, and the targeting and poaching of key employees.

As alleged in the lawsuit, AAC has been so brazen in its efforts to secure MEMS technology and delivery systems that it has targeted and solicited key employees in the Knowles organization, openly advising them to blatantly disregard their non-compete and non-disclosure agreements. Utilizing a web of former Knowles employees and third parties in the U.S. and in China, AAC gained key trade secret and proprietary information regarding Knowles' successful formulas, design solutions, vendors and pricing.

The acoustics industry is fiercely competitive arena with rapid technological development and short product life cycles. Companies in this area strive to be the forerunners to research and development, patent creation and manufacturing technology and to effectively penetrate the market with new products. As a result, measures are taken by companies for purposes of protecting their research and development, trade secrets, confidential and proprietary information.

By going public with the information contained in this letter, it is our hope to provide further insight into the serious threats posed by piracy to international trade and the global economy. We ask you to join us in support of basic economic fairness not because of the damages we alone have experienced, but because of the longer-term threats posed to global economic vitality if such practices remain unchecked and unpunished.

If you would like additional detail or a copy of the actual complaint filed with the court, please contact John Corey at jcorey@greentarget.net.

Sincerely,

John Zei
President and Chief Executive Officer
Knowles Electronics, LLC
