Apple Suing HTC

Poster: Aron Schatz
Posted on March 2, 2010 at 11:44:41 AM
Apple is targeting the maker of the Google Nexus One, HTC, in a lawsuit over 20 patents.

Quote

Apple today filed a lawsuit against HTC for infringing on 20 Apple patents related to the iPhone's user interface, underlying architecture and hardware. The lawsuit was filed concurrently with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) and in U.S. District Court in Delaware.

"We can sit by and watch competitors steal our patented inventions, or we can do something about it. We've decided to do something about it," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "We think competition is healthy, but competitors should create their own original technology, not steal ours."


Steve Jobs thinks competition is healthy when no one has a product that can compete with Apple. Suddenly, the Nexus One comes out (which isn't even that great), and Apple gets in a bind. What say you about this?

The writing is going to get on the wall real soon if Apple keeps this up. They've been able to get away with it for the most part, and it has been real successful for them, but if they don't cut this proprietary "we're the only ones allowed to do the things we do" shit, they are going to be in big trouble.
When the iPad begins to flounder after a month or so (and it will), I hope they look at it as a wake up call and not as the "the public wasn't ready for our genius" type of arrogance that they showed when Apple TV sputtered and died.
