True. No doubts there. It can't be overlooked, however, that GM and Delphi have a very close relationship as Manufacturer and Supplier. They've been the only company to utilize and integrate the system since it came out until about 2007 when a few other OEMs finally caught on.
Given this...while I'm not arguing who has rights to the system....I also don't doubt that GM assisted Delphi in the development of that system.
EDIT: I do wish GM DID have sole rights to the technology....then maybe it wouldn't have been bought by Chinese BWI.....
