Kodak Sues Apple & RIM Over Preview In Cameras
Dave Knott writes "Kodak is suing Apple and Research In Motion over technology related to digital cameras in their iPhone and BlackBerry smart phones. The complaint specifically relates to photo preview functionality which Kodak claims infringes on their patents. The company is asking for unspecified monetary damages and a court order to end the disputed practices. Kodak has amassed more than 1,000 digital-imaging patents, and almost all of today's digital cameras rely on that technology. Kodak has licensed digital-imaging technology to about 30 companies, including mobile-device makers such as LG Electronics Inc., Motorola Inc., Nokia Corp. and Sony Ericsson, all of which pay royalties to Kodak."
You've obviously never been a big corporation served with a lawsuit for a patent violation by another big corporation.
Not true! As a child, I was a big corporation, but I grew out of it.
... and then they built the supercollider.
Quote "Their margins are lower then Apple's but they're a far bigger company."
Mister Pedant awards 2 points for spelling "Their" and "they're" correctly but takes 5 points away for using 'then' instead of 'than'.
here's an example to help you understand "...the cost today is 5.99 but then againt it could be less than that next week."
