Nokia has filed a number of lawsuits against Apple for violating 32 technology patents, striking back at the iPhone maker’s legal action targeting the one-time cellphone industry leader a day earlier.
Nokia’s lawsuits, filed in courts in Dusseldorf, Mannheim and Munich, Germany, and the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, cover patents for displays, user interfaces, software, antennas, chipsets and video coding.
So Nokia has now basically become a patent troll? Doing this essentially means they get to survive a couple more years I guess or am I missing something else here?
