Motorola To Collect Royalties For Android

Posted by timothy on from the everybody-wants-a-piece dept.

tlhIngan writes "It looks like Motorola wants to join in on the Android patent licensing fun enjoyed by Microsoft and others. (Yes, the same Motorola that makes Android phones.) Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha has stated they plan to collect licensing royalties from other Android manufacturers. Given Motorola's involvement in the mobile industry, they certainly do have the portfolio to go with it. It's interesting times ahead for Android."

    The funny thing about technology is that it's hard to get it working, but it's easy to copy. That's why patents exist and it's why they should exist.
