Nokia 700 review: Agent seven double-ohNokia suing Apple over the infringment of a dozen of patents
Nokia have obviously had some grudges with Apple ever since the iPhone was introduced in 2007 and now they're even going to court. The reason - well, Apple have used some of Nokia's GSM, UMTS and WLAN patented technologies in all of the three generations of the iPhone, but they seem to be refusing...

If Nokia wins the lawsuit, I will most probably never touch a Nokia handset again

Get it?
Good.

> In reply to [deleted post]The reason i asked is because i cant find a quote that says Nokia was found guilty from the whole Nokia Qualcomm saga. I know there was a settlement however there is no explanation as to why there was. It says the payment was so they share patents.
Sorry if i was unclear but i need a link that says nokia found guilty.
You cant blame me for needing proof

"For some Nokia phones you can configure the use of this codec:
To activate EFR codec use enter the following code: *3370#
To deactivate EFR codec use enter the following code: #3370#"
EFR is one of the disputed patents, it looks like a phone will still work without using it so it's not essential.
Does disabling the EFR codec disconnect you from the network?
Somehow I don't think so.
Are there alternatives?
I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Geez, iPhone fans cry more then a homo which is boyfriend stole his handbag...
Get it real guys, even if you like your lack of good software and incomplete hardware cellphone which therefore the trademark didn't payed the pattents, it's just one amough all the others that have to pay those that are enforced by law.
Nokia did good to sue Apple, as it was theyr only way to show the world as non trustworthy is that company.
If i would be in the place of Nokia, i would just love to see all the iPhone stock already on Market to have his GSM transmitions cutted off. That would make me even more realized and rofling at the situation then getting a couple bucks more in my pocket.

Apple paid Ericsson and Qualcomm for licences, so maybe they didn't use any of Nokia's technology.
Qualcomm is the company Nokia stole code off, Nokia was found guilty and paid Qualcomm $1.7billion.
Apple employed Qualcomm engineers so maybe they came up with their own solutions using the code Nokia stole.
Apple was writing software when Nokia was still pulping forests for paper, they've done a lot of work on data transmission and audio codecs.
We'll just have to wait and see.

> In reply to [deleted post]Apple has $34 Billion in cash reserves, the don't have any debt, they could easily pay Nokia licence fees, just like they paid Ericsson and Qualcomm.
Why they didn't pay Nokia is anyone's guess, maybe Nokia got too greedy or maybe Apple isn't using Nokia's technology.
Anyway Apple is making no comment as usual, we won't know anything until it goes to court.
Here's the complaint, it's pretty boring legal stuff
