Apple countersue Nokia
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 14 December 2009
Countersuit of the day goes to Apple, who are countersuing Nokia in relation to the mobile maker’s previously reported lawsuit which accused the IT firm of infringing its patents in the manufacture of the iPhone.
As previously reported, Nokia accused Apple of patent infringement back in October, basically in a bid to try to force the IT firm to pay it a licence fee on the sale of their rather successful iPhone. Now Apple are saying Nokia has infringed some of its patents in the manufacture of their phone handsets. Apple’s legal man said: “Other companies must compete with us by inventing their own technologies, not just by stealing ours”.
