Suit against HTC

Apple has filed a lawsuit for patent infringement towards the phone manufacturer HTC, which uses the Androis OS in many of their phones.

quote:
Taoyuan, Taiwan�July 16, 2011 � HTC received notice of the ITC judge�s initial determination in the Apple vs. HTC case, ITC No. 337-TA-710. Apple originally asserted 10 of its patents against HTC in March 2010, and the judge ruled today that HTC infringed on 2 patents. HTC does not yet have access to the judge�s full opinion and analysis to determine the details of his findings.

Read about this a couple of days ago. Hopefully HTC will win the appeal.

I love my HTC, fuck you apple!

As the article says, if they lose the appeal it could be a pretty big blow to Android phones in general in the US. I agree with you though Stu, as much as I am a fan of Apple products, I think with phones in particular there really needs to be competition.

Why try and innovate when you can just sue?

This reeks of lame-as-fuck.

What's more likely is that HTC will pay Apple to continue to use their patents. From what I understand, HTC already pay apple for some kind of thing that their smartphones do. Multi-touch or something? I forget now.

Well part of the suit is that Apple did innovate and they're claiming that HTC and Android copied them.

"Schmidt To Apple: Stop Litigating And Start Innovating"

Google CEO Responds to Jobs being a sook LINK

Apple's just got sand in their vagina cause all they're doing these days is playing catch-up to google-- Instead of pushing development forward they're now suing everybody. Microsoft did/is doing exactly the same thing, suing every company who has ever made a product similar to one they've made.

fucking america and their law-suits, srsly...

apple is seriously fucking with the free market; there have been serious rumours (contradiction? ) that Apple is the reason the Samsung Galaxy S II has taken so long to get to the US... Instead of making better products they're just trying to hijack other's successes.

HTC > iPhone except for the battery life.

My thoughts exactly.


Posted by Alex on Jul-22-2011 04:06:

My HTC Legend has excellent battery life. 4 days at least.

(With calls, texting and some browsing and emails)


Posted by nchs09 on Jul-22-2011 04:07:

my htc evo 4g has like a 10 hour battery life.

Is that with mobile internet + bluetooth and GPS always on?


Posted by nchs09 on Jul-22-2011 04:13:

Internet i turn on and off depending on if i use it (only 3g because 4g kills my battery). That extends my battery life a little. No blutooth annnnnnd i think my gps is turned on but i am not sure.


my phone gps not my actual GPS system app on my phone.


My brightness is pretty high because i use sunglasses and i cant see it sometimes if i am wearing them.


If i am careful i can make it last a good 16 hours.

The only "smart" phone I ever had was the Blackberry Storm, and it was the biggest piece of shit I ever had. I sold it to some teenager from Craigslist for like $400 hahaha. What an idiot.

I've had a regular phone since then but I've been thinking about getting a new smart phone when my contract with Verizon is up. I've only had very limited experience with Android phones, so my first inclination would be to go with an iPhone, but I'd really like to get more used to the Droid OS because it seems like you can do a lot more with them as far as customization and getting the most out of its processor.


Posted by nchs09 on Jul-22-2011 05:21:

I have used that before.... a friend had it. It was a horrible phone.

unless you're a pleb you should not get an iPhone. If you have any capability with electronics at all android is the way to go.
