According to the International Trade Commission U.S. (ICT) (agency resolves a dispute between Apple and HTC), Taiwan manufacturers have expressed violation of 2 / 10 Apple patents. This is the part in which the accused Apple last month submitted to the ICT 3-2010.
According to preliminary information, two patents mentioned above in the form of “basic”, including the patent number “U.S. Patent No. 5,946,647 “- System and method for implementing a data structure and” U.S. Patent No. 6,343,263 “- signal processing system allows real-time serial data transmission.The two patents are also a material dispute between Apple and Motorola, Apple and Nokia. The decision of the ICT was also the first legal case for Android for signs of copyright infringement by a third party.
This is just the latest twist in a legal dispute of this cult. Before waiting for the final verdict of ICT, has not confirmed the fate of the HTC. Adrian Hughes pens and technology magazine ZDNet believe this is a very bad message not only with HTC but with a series of phone manufacturers use different Android.
The worst scenario is the ICT will impose a ban on the sale of products used in the U.S. Android by HTC. And if there was a precedent such as HTC, Apple will probably sue the makers other Android device, and put up iOS unique position in this exciting market.
Predicting a little darker scenario, Florian Mueller – longtime activist in the field of intellectual property – that HTC will cost a huge amount of compensation, or to divide a sum of trade with certain Apple for each of the HTC Android device to be sold to the company was “peaceful” in America.
From a broader perspective than the initial victory of the “Apple” is also a blow to heaven on the “green machines” of Google, who was poised iOS overtaken at home. HTC still resisted weakly, HTC representative said it would pursue the lawsuit to the end. If an appeal of the ICT HTC unshakable, no other way it would have to compromise with Apple.
Moderate dispute with HTC, both against Samsung, Apple seems to have “proof” of the importance of the regulatory system – which if strong enough will not be easy for the opponent can “bypass” Apple to unauthorized use of the patent. According to information from Apple Insider, Steve Jobs has just recruited two specialist legal advice to “increase the chance of winning in litigation”
Samsung – Apple: “still need each other”
A5 generation of Samsung chip is used on the iPad 2, 5 and iPhone product will be labeled Samsung eventually present on the Apple device. After a series of legal disputes, Apple has decided to cooperate with TSMC, a major chip maker in Taiwan. According to Reuters, TSMC has everything ready to cook the latest generation of Apple’s chip. However, according to Seo Won Seok, an industry expert, said that Apple and Samsung is not “still need each other” in the coming period, Samsung will supply chips for Apple A5 until TSMC’s chip appeared. |
