Edit
Well, MS managed to string it out to 2010. Oh guess, what Office 2010 has already been released by April. Problem solved. As it does not affect already sold products.
Edit: " Microsoft says it's moving quickly to have versions of Office 2007 and Word 2007 that don't have the "little-used" XML features for sale by January 11, and that the Office 2010 betas use a different algorithm that doesn't infringe i4i's patent. It's also considering an appeal, so we'll see what happens there.:
