So, first Nokia sues over some general cell phone technology patents. Then Apple countersues over patents that they specifically developed for the iPhone. Now Nokia suddenly realized that every Apple product ever uses their technology and is counter-counter suing. I wonder how many days it is before Apple realizes Nokia is using Apple technology in every one of their devices ever and counter^3 sues, and how many days after that until they settle.

- sahaj 17y agothis will probably happen in this case. they are just placing their bargaining chips on the table.
- mbreese 17y agoFrom what I've read, this was the problem... Nokia wanted to cross-license everything, and Apple balked at that. I can't say that I blame Apple, given that the iPhone interface seems to be far ahead of Nokia's current offerings.
