Is it something in Android or in the front-ends these two companies have created for it? Otherwise SE and Motorola should be receiving notices too. Especially considering the ubiquitous label of Droid applied haphazardly to Android phones that aren't even from Motorola.

Ashura, 07 Jul 2011What patents?Microsoft did not even explain that.Oracle is the legal owner of the Linux rights... moreprecisely correct, i also observed that american tech companies, microsoft and apple in particular are trying to stop samsung to become the most powerful technology company, and american company are trembling, joining forces is the best way to do it.

looks like microsoft's jumping on the bandwagon alongside apple and with good reason, as much as i enjoy the look and function of the galaxy range they've completely ripped off the ergonomics and design of the iphone 3gs. no idea what patents microsoft is claiming against but make em suffer!

I still wonder what these "patents" are and why they haven't been reviewed. I doubt MS actually contributed anything substantial to mobile phones, but I hear the patent infringements are mainly about how files get transferred. I don't use, nor support MS or Apple on my machines, so the act of extorting fees from the manufacturers is downright cowardly on MS's part. If the fees are to avoid being sued for "intellectual property", then they should put that "intellect" to good use and come up with a mobile OS that can actually compete in the mobile world.

Just because Android phones are more sucessful and sell more than Windows based phones, Microsoft are getting annoyed, therefore greedy.
Typical.
Why cant they accept they have competition instead of being stupid?

AnonD-4982, 07 Jul 2011Greedy bastardsHow is it greedy if someone brakes your patents? The way Samsung reacts to it(Willing to pay money for Microsoft) clearly means that Samsung knew from the start Android brakes Microsofts patents.
