but at least the legal burden then falls on Apple and not mom & pop app dev. Worst case scenario I'd expect Apple pays Lodsys an undisclosed sum to license the tech for the devs.
- forensic 15y agoThe legal burden will fall on both apple and the mom & pops. They aren't going to withdraw their suits just because apple threatens them.
- arn 15y agoLodsys hasn't actually yet filed suit against anyone. Just sent threatening letters.
- toadkick 15y agoPerhaps, but now Apple has contested that their developers are in fact licensed, and that Lodsys has already received what they claim is due to them. Seems like they've found a way to inject themselves into the battle in a way that should bring the fight home to them.
- linker3000 15y agoHmm, you don't think Lodsys reckoned the same way, do you?
