In France one mobile operator (Orange) attacked another one (Free) with patent violation and the judge told them something like this : "software cannot be patented: you loose, pay 200k€ of damage". I'm quite happy about this outcome but that's only a first level judgement and it was this week so it can still be appealed.. Now what would be even better is that the patent office which accepted this software patent (illegal here) should be held responsible for this mess, but I'm not holding my breath..
