Nokia sue Apple for patent infringements yet again

09 May, 2010
This is getting completely out of hand now. Nokia have just filled yet another complaint against Apple, this time with the Federal District Court in the Western District of Wisconsin. The Finnish company accuses Apple of...

      Apple deserve to be taken court by Nokia,as Apple have just infringed all the innovations Nokia have been investing into to improve software an services on mobiles,Apple would not like it if it was Nokia stealing there ideas,Nokia will also be hitting back at Nokia with the N8,£320 for N8,iPhone 4g will be over £500 i bet,so Apple have got to Realise you buy a Mobile mainly for calling an texting but with all the features on the iPhone are not free all the time an the iPhone way too expensive for the U.k but might be o.k for the Yanks

        [deleted post]I have one. It's neat. That's it. I disagree with you 100%. I can afford any phone on the market. It is a quality novelty product but not very functional as an actual phone.

        I prefer HTC and Android who promote FREE development. Nokia was great, they just became outdated with their symbian devices.

              Go Nokia, crush that fruit for all its worth!!
              Then other brand, follow the leader.

                The iphone is so bad, it gets all the media coverage, a section on Download.com of it's own for new apps every week, and rave reviews from the smartest and best respected websites/tech magazines in the world.

                And all this is simply posturing by both companies. If Nokia won a huge court case against Apple and it's patents, then it will open up a huge can of worms, and invite itself to be sued by every innovator out there, big and small.

                My prediction: A out of court settlement, with both companies sharing technology.

                  I`m almost certain that an US court will not let Apple loose this battle against nokia in their country (US), apple beeing an Us Corporation, as for others countrys that is another story .

                    [deleted post]I have tried an iPhone 3G and it did suck. I was missing basic features that I took for granted. Forwarding text messages is a good example (which my first cell a SE T39 had) of a basic features that was just missing. Much about it worked well. I likened the iPhone to a brilliant student who refused to take reading and math seriously. I dumped it after three months and got an iPod touch & a nokia.

                    Apple has attacked an awfully strong foe. It will be interesting how it plays out. They may win a battle or two in US courts & loose the war in overseas courts. There integrated hardware and software model has repeatedly pushed them into small market shares. Google may beat Apple as there software is comparable to apples & the volume of quality manufactures producing innovative handsets crush the iPhones hardware.

                                      [deleted post]Because apple did it a again and released another device using nokia's tech.nokia has been leaniant towards apple thinking they could just them to pay but apple keeps ignoring them
                                      All nokia wants apple to do is pay the licensing fee like every other company
                                      And if they do apple will have alot of money problems
                                      Cause they will count every unit sold plus Ipad units with 3g

If you did, then you would'nt have made such a comment about how Nokia can't make a device better than iPhone. This comparison on this very site makes everything you said utter crap:

                                        N900 vs 3GS (Specs) - Nokia DOMINATES

                                        N8 vs 3GS (Why even go there) Nokia easily DOMINATES
                                        but if you must have the comparison:

                                        The only thing that makes iPhone decent is the software, the hardware of the iPhone is sub-par at best and you talk about Apple has better technology. Yeah right, Apple doesn't even know how to make a phone that you can take the back cover off to change the battery. SD card? Never happen on Apple. Jobs won't allow it. Open source development? Won't happen. Jobs won't allow it.

                                        Man, for his name to be Jobs, he's surely not supplying anybody with one. Apple sucks, Jobs sucks, Nokia BOSS!!! HTC and Nokia need to Bake Apple. That way, their crap would be of some use.
