Apple Sues Creative

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the tit-for-litigious-tat dept.

boarder8925 writes "Apple is counter-suing Creative, claiming it has infringed 'four patents in its handheld digital players.' The suit was filed the same day that Creative filed suit against Apple. 'Creative proactively held discussions with Apple in our efforts to explore amicable solutions,' a spokesman for Creative said. 'At no time during these discussions or at any other time did Apple mention to us the patents it raised in its lawsuit.'"

    Don't dish it out if you can't take it.

    That's a dumb ass response. They sued each other ON THE SAME DAY. They were in talks to discuss each other's patents and work out a deal. It falls through - they both sue each other *AT THE SAME TIME*. Maybe you should re-read TFA.

    Damn apple fan boys.
