Venue is proper in this judicial district pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1391(b) and (c)
Background to the Action 64. In the 1980s, years before LCD screen-containing products such as cellular
phones, digital cameras, PDAs, and portable DVD players became ubiquitous in the consumer electronics market, the aviation and aerospace industry became interested in replacing traditional cockpit displays with LCD displays. Honeywell invested heavily in developing the technology necessary to provide LCD displays that would meet this need. 65. Among Honeywell's LCD display inventions was technology that enables a
display to produce a brighter image (making the screen easier to see) without requiring additional power while helping to reduce the appearance of an undesirable interference pattern called the "Moire effect" on the screen. Honeywell protected this invention by obtaining United States Patent No. 5,280,371, (the "`371 Patent"), which was duly and legally issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on January 18, 1994. A copy of the `371 Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. 66. Honeywell possesses the right to sue infringers of the `371 Patent. Acts Giving Rise to the Action 67. Apple has been and is engaged in the manufacture, importation, offer for sale,
and/or sale of products that include a liquid crystal display (LCD) in the United States with the knowledge and intention that such LCD screen-containing products would be sold throughout the United States, including this judicial district. Such products include at least one of the following: laptop computers, cellular phones, PDAs, digital still cameras, video cameras, portable DVD players, portable televisions, portable entertainment systems, and/or portable navigation aids.
