    I hope Google not to be evil. It's understandable to want Apple to pay back for all the damage they've done with nonsense patent fights, but I don't see any good future in lowering to their level. Google and Moto are better than that. In the end this endless lawsuits only bring the worst for consumers, blocking innovation and development. A patents system is healthy, necessary and possitive, as long as you don't abuse it the way Apple (followed by some other enterprises in that industry including their direct competitors) have done.

      So, the war machine has rolled off the factory and is already heading towards Apple Country, with a magazine fully loaded with ready-to-fire patents. Let's see how this assault unit changes the balance of the patent war. Also, I need to lay off the RTS games.

              It's funny and sort of a waste to 1st say that the new CEO was hired to bring in new ideas and fresh blood and then immediately after say that very little will change and everything will be as before??!!
