the real reason is probably that apple is a pattent troll themselves. why would they cross one target (microsoft, and possibly several other microsoft partners) off their list by joining this?
remember that not even patent trolls have tried to enforce design patents as IP before apple. They are really good at trolling. ALso, do not forgot job's emails to the RIM ceo during the valleygate.
