Sendo Sues Orange for Patent Infringement

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the we-did-it-first dept.

captnjameskirk writes "RCR Wireless News is reporting that Sendo is suing European carrier Orange for patent infringement involving the circuit board design within the phones. As the article points out, Sendo also sued Microsoft for allegedly stealing their technology for use in the Smartphone OS." Back in January, we also had some more information on the case between Sendo and Microsoft.

    Wouldn't it save bandwidth if you reported the companies that aren't suing each other?

    We have tried to solve the matter in an amicable way,â said Hugh Brogan, Sendoâ(TM)s chief executive officer.

    Translated: We tried to extort millions of dollars before filing suit, and they said no. Reminds me of IBM's past amicable actions.
