i have been told that someone just showed that the number of solutions to:

 n     n      n
a  +  b  =   c    (a,b,c integers > 0, n integer >2)

were finite.  this someone, in Germany, also was reported to have
generalized this finite solution set to include a,b,c being rational.

sorry if a may have mistated the theorem.  (*send flames to /dev/null*)
any info out there?
