Wow! That's a lot of information. I don't know if it helps me to pursue my idea, but I have a better idea of how to go about it. I'd be interested to know if anyone out there has gone through the process of taking their idea and going for it. Success?
That's some great info, SoSoDef76 ! Thanks! Hey.. I have some different questions. Rather than an invention, I have ideas for business ventures that could (in my opinion) be successful. My questions are... 1) How can I make those business ideas come to fruition? 2) How can I get capital and proceed with the business without sacrificing my life savings and the security of my 8 - 5 job? 3) How can I get capital from others without sacrificing my ownership? 4) What are the steps I should follow if I want to pursue this idea? 5) In general, how do I do it? And... most importantly... 6) How much to patent attorneys cost, and how can a startup afford them? -- droxford
