I got the following email, based on this patent infringement case:

http://news.priorsmart.com/pacing-technologies-v-garmin-international-l5Xa/

Dear Garmin Customer:

You are invited to take the following optional survey. Please see the link below. You have received this invitation because you are a registered user of the Garmin Connect website. This email was ordered by a United States federal district court in a lawsuit involving Pacing Technologies and Garmin. You are not required to participate in this survey. This survey is a one-time event, and you will not be contacted for this matter again unless you consent and provide your contact information at the end of the survey.

The survey relates only to the following products: Forerunner 310XT, 405, 405CX, 410, 610, and 910XT; Edge 200, 500, 510, 800, and 810; and Garmin Swim.

If you are not a U.S. resident, if you have not used or purchased one of the above-mentioned Garmin fitness products, or if you are presently or formerly a Garmin employee, please disregard this communication.

If you wish to participate in the survey, please click the following link.

re: feverish

I got that survey too, but I was not aware it had anything to do with a patent infringement case. I don't see the connection. Care to explain?

Here's the explanation from a patent case docket website:

"The court granted in part plaintiff's motion to send a survey to defendant’s customers concerning potential indirect infringement. However, rather than compel defendant to produce customer names and email addresses, the court ordered defendant to send an optional survey to their customers."
