I dont know too much about it to be honest, but from what i do Lorrie has pretty much covered. The benifits are basically a lighter and more breathable shoe, but the benefits of the particular shoes both brands are currently bringing out are as Z referred to......only really relevant for your serious amateur runners/pro's providing it suits their foot.
In terms of the technology, apparently is been around for donkeys years (since the 40's), why its taken until now to want to use it i dont know. So the argument is about the right to be able to use a widely known technology, though you will always have brands arguing over patents to certain styles/silhouettes (i.e. prime knit/fly knit). I think its more a general one than a brand v brand thing as it opens up the possibility for other brands to use it as well.
Not saying i'm right with any of the above, just my thoughts.....
