It's more than a Sony issue

This basically covers everything with a laser attached to it. Even Dr Evil's sharks. Actually, maybe that's why he couldn't get the sharks. Anyway, I hate sensationalist titles. Maybe if they would've used the same writing Engadget did, they wouldn't get the attention.

What about other technology?

Wouldn't this patent only cover very specific technology used to produce a specific type of blue diode? Several technologies now exist - many are patented to Japanese companies.
