Anonymous, 14 Jun 2011why shouldnt they have license agreements for Android devic... moreYes, all Android manufacturers have cross-license agreements with Nokia (and each other). The ones with the most R&D on the area (Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola) earn money from their patents; the ones with the least R&D (Samsung, LG, now Apple) pay to use the others' patents. This is how things have always been; Apple just wanted a free ride.

joelpogi, 14 Jun 2011why does apple have to pay for the patent, licenses and for... moreIt's part of the agreement. It's the royalty and it's similar to HTC paying Microsoft US $5 for every Android device they sell.

All quake in your pants, Nokia/Windows is coming at you and you would be so foolish to not even think so. Microsoft never chuck money at something that fails do they? And lets be honest how long can Apple get away with making the same old identical cr@p? It's only a matter of time....
