Ah, the patent nuclear war in action. After Apple roundly destroyed Nokia's reputation as being the leading innovator when it came to smartphones, Nokia got petulant and
sued Apple for patent infringement. In response, in typical patent nuclear war fashion, Apple turned around and
sued Nokia back for patent infringement. Nokia's response? Find some more patents and
sue again and
also use the ITC loophole to get two shots at Apple with the same patents. And why stop there? Now that there's an iPad on the market, Nokia has
sued Apple yet again for patent infringement. Isn't it great to see how two companies compete in the courtroom rather than the marketplace? Just like the creators of the patent system intended...
