Copyright, Infringement and Stupidity: Update 1

U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has made a decision regarding the patent lawsuit between Apple and Nokia. Apple has not violated any of five patents claimed by Nokia in its lawsuit.

Apple Inc (AAPL.O) won a round in its patent battle with Nokia (NOK1V.HE) on Friday as a U.S. trade panel ruled that the U.S. company did not violate any of five Nokia patents. The patents were for electronic devices, including mobile phones, portable music players and computers

Nokia had first filed this patent dispute back in October 2009. The situation quickly escalated, with both companies counter suing and filing patent infringements against each other. Nokia has recently filed 4 new suits in Europe against Apple.

I told you this was going to be an exiting year!
