Well, some of the patents are hardware, and you still need to sell your device in countries that will recognize these patents to make it worth making.
I expect a settlement out of this, there just seems to be something else going on that is behind closed doors. It just doesn't quite make sense how it is being reported.

Sure, but as long as someone is selling the hardware (perhaps even licensing the appropriate patents) the hacker/end-user would still be able to compile and load software to make it all work.
I expect a settlement too, if only because I can't imagine that HTC has enough money to invalidate all of the patents/show that they don't infringe on them.
