HTC sues Apple, alleging patent infringement

The mobile patent war rages on.
Taiwan's HTC Corp. has filed a lawsuit against Apple Inc. alleging patent infringement in Macs, iPhones and iPads. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court in Delaware, seeks a halt to the import of products found to infringe HTC patents.

Additionally, it also seeks compensatory damages and triple damages for "willful infringement." Apple has previously targeted HTC with patent infringement cases of its own, including a filing with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC).

HTC said in July that it would consider trying to settle its patent dispute with Apple.

Yes! Go kill'em!

It would be so nice and fair to witness the apple being smashed again in the court, the place they've grown to love the most.

Or, at least, force them to retreat and fly back to their planet with that cool spaceship they're building, far away from us, doomed, dirty humans.
