Summarizing the Apple-Android Patent Battle

FlorianMueller writes "Apple's patent dispute with Motorola is one of the biggest legal battles going on at the moment. Apple, which is also entangled in litigation with Nokia and HTC, recently beefed up its legal team, but it also keeps throwing in ever more patents. Apple made important court filings last Wednesday and Thursday. The bottom line: Apple now asserts 24 patents against Motorola, which uses 18 patents in claims against Apple. 21 of Apple's infringement allegations relate to Android, 3 to Motorola set-top boxes and DVRs. Motorola targets the whole range of Apple products." Mueller followed up the above article with an excellent visualization of how the patents, companies, and courts intersect.

Apple wanted to pay the fees. It's just that Nokia would not accept the without ALSO being given a variety of patents that Apple owned as well. Which was not at all Non-Discriminatory, as Nokia has done no such thing with any other phone provider.

Nice try at revisionism, Apple Hater.
