Legal battle spiced up between Apple and Nokia

www.WirelessFederation.com/news: According to the latest development in the legal battle between USA’s Apple and Finland’s Nokia, Apple has countersued Nokia over 13 alleged patent violations of its technology. The move is followed by a lawsuit filed by Nokia in the month of October, accusing iPhone maker Apple of ten patent infringements.

The US based company has said that its competitors have to compete with them by inventing their own technologies and not by just stealing it from Apple.

Earlier, Nokia had said that it has not yet been compensated for its technology. The ten alleged patent infringements by Apple involve wireless data, speech coding, security and encryption applied to all models of the iPhone since its launch in 2007.

According to Nokia, it had agreements with about 40 firms allowing them to use the firm’s technology, but Apple had not signed an agreement.
