"Nokia has filed a lawsuit against Apple in Delaware District Court. The Finnish cellular giant claims that Apple is infringing on its wireless technologies patents.\nNokia holds patents on GSM, UMTS and WLAN standards and licenses that technology to more than forty other companies. Nokia claims that Apple never paid to license this technology.\nFrom Nokia's press release:\n\nThe ten patents in suit relate to technologies fundamental to making devices which are compatible with one or more of the GSM, UMTS (3G WCDMA), and wireless LAN standards. The patents cover wireless data, speech coding, security and encryption and are infringed by all Apple iPhone models shipped since the iPhone was introduced in 2007.\n\"The basic principle in the mobile industry is that those companies who contribute in technology development to establish standards create intellectual property, which others then need to compensate for,\" said Ilkka Rahnasto, Vice President, Legal &amp; Intellectual Property at Nokia. \"Apple is also expected to follow this principle. By refusing to agree appropriate terms for Nokia's intellectual property, Apple is attempting to get a free ride on the back of Nokia's innovation.\"\n\nApple has not issued a statement responding to the lawsuit at this time.  We'll post an update when they do."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
