HTC Defeats Apple In Slide-To-Unlock Patent Dispute

another random user sends this quote from the BBC: "HTC is claiming victory in a patent dispute with Apple after a ruling by the High Court in London. The judge ruled that HTC had not infringed four technologies that Apple had claimed as its own. He said Apple's slide-to-unlock feature was an 'obvious' development in the light of a similar function on an earlier Swedish handset. Lawyers fighting other lawsuits against Apple are likely to pay close attention to the decision regarding its slide-to-unlock patent."

They invented this fine product with cool innovations like "slide to unlock" and the government should protect these inventive employees from theft by companies like HTC.
