Please correct me if I am wrong since I am not sure if I got all facts right.
Motorola is currently holding a patent on push technology. One of our courts in Germany stopped iCloud from pushing due to patent infringements. Now that Google bought Motorola Mobility do they own they patent?
If this would be the fact I would predict that we will see more lawsuits against Apple regarding this one patent. Sounds like a great weapon - forcing your competitor to kill one of the interesting parts of a service they use for advertisement.
- henrikeh 14y agoI don't know. Powerful weapon? Sure. Good for the industry? I doubt it.
- abrahamsen 14y agoApple is currently suing all the major Android makers, including Motorola. Best case scenario: Googles new weapons will lead to a series of broad cross-license agreements, which will end the mobile patent wars.
- saket123 14y agoI wish that happens..Imagine how much more money can be pumped into next generation technology if Companies stop wasting time and money in patent wars.
- tedunangst 14y agoNone? Google and Apple are swimming in cash. They're already at, or even past, the point of diminishing returns for R&D spending.
- fallenhitokiri 14y agoI think there is just too much money you can make if you win the mobile patent wars. Wasn't Google making more money with patent payments from Apple than they make with Android?
- drivebyacct2 14y agoHuh? Microsoft is making more off of Android than WP7 (almost surely based on easy rough math)
