Why would they be "extremely" likely to win?

It seems to me those patents are all trivial, and thus Google should have at least a decent chance of winning if they keep fighting indefinitely (hopefully, almost certainty, but IANAL).

Of course, if Google settles without buying the patents (or equivalently, an unlimited license for everyone), it would be a disaster.
