Nokia Suing Apple

Nokia Suing Apple




Nokia has already sued Apple over GSM patents, and last week Nokia filed a complaint with the International Trade Commission,

which asked the commission to ban the import of Apple mobile products including the MacBook, iPhone and iPods.

Nokia has filed another federal complaint against Apple, alleging that Curpertino is violating 7 more Nokia Patents. Nokia

says these violations are all implementation patents, or features that differentiate Nokia products from the rest of the

market.

Nokia claims that the infringing technologies are present in the iPhone 3G, 3GS, iPod touch, iPod Nano and Classic, as well as

the Mac Pro, the Mac Mini, the MacBook and the MacBook.
Nokia wants a jury trial, and an injunction against Apple for allegedly violating the patents.

Not to be outdone, Apple is already counter-suing Nokia from its earlier suits, claiming essentially that Nokia missed the

boat on updating mobile phone technology and wants access to Apple patents, while slowing Apple growth.

The big winners in all this will likely be the lawyers.

Interesting

gud one....but how can apple use d patented name,,or technology,,,,nokia making new issue,,becos of more sale of apple ipone etc,,is it? i think so,,,becos evry1 knw we cant use patented name or product,,,n apple is a bigest brand,,,how they can,,,

well they do 

but in tht case they actually purchase the software

for instance

Samsung HD ... I think they have got the OS from Nokia , Its symbian and operates better on Samsung than their Nokia brand itself.

But apple may have used on or the other products of the nokia

where as nokia on other hand had the same thing as Apple is now suing nokia for other copyrights issue
