      This is actually quite funny... Can't we take Apple to court and let the judge decide how much should Apple charge for their products?

                Since Sony mobile division is currently on a loss, Ericsson must buy it and start manufacturing Sony Ericsson mobiles again. I've been a huge fan of those phones such as the Xperia X8 wow!, what a great phone with amazing build quality, sensible 3 inch screen (still using it using Custom GingerDX Rom). And then go put up some serious competition with Apple iPhone.

                                  "demands more than required for their technology which is wrong" the same could be said to Apple products tho? Lol

                                  Should people go to court then and sue them?

                                      No wonder aPple don't want the royalty to be set by the end price of their overpriced products....

                                      So by this they are more or less officially admitting the overpricing...
