Sure, your N8 might take a great picture -- but is it about to become
a hotbed of legal wrangling between Espoo and one of the more prolific
research universities in the States? We love us some heady courtroom
drama, and Pasadena's Caltech is now officially attempting to bring
the smack down on Nokia, LG, Pantech, Toshiba, STMicroelectronics, and
others over a total of nine patents related to sensor technology (as
far as we can tell, lens optics aren't involved). For its troubles,
the university wants unspecified damages for infringing on the
intellectual property... which, if it wins, we're hoping we'll be
poured into its Jet Propulsion Laboratory. You know, because rockets
are awesome.
