Google is hoping that by providing patent umbrella to

actively strengthen the fighting capacity of the Android

camp, to help allies resist competitors attack, the

primary rival is Apple. Next, the Android camp counter-

attack was about to start a Google camp with Apple

and Microsoft, and even litigation between the patent

cockroaches melee will be more play more intense.

In recent years, high-tech industries through patent

war as a weapon to block competitors, not only

boosted the operating costs, but also raised the

barriers to entry. Actively engaged in mergers and

acquisitions, the main purpose is to patent. Intellectual

property patent on a highly competitive industry, the

increasingly important to the future survival of the key.

Morgan Stanley estimates, assumptions HTC Each

phone 4-5 U.S. dollars will pay Apple royalties this year

(2011) estimated 50 million shipments, more than 9

percent is the Android system to calculate the total

premium of about 2.25 to $ 250 million.

ITC initial impression infringement of these two Apple

patent 647 and 263, also used against Motorola and

Nokia. Nokia phone leading position has long been

occupied, the cumulative number of important core

patented technology, forcing Apple had reached a

settlement with Nokia. Motorola since its inception in

1928, master has accumulated a lot of the core patents

should also be some bargaining chip in negotiations

with Apple. Since 2003 Apple to buy Freescale 200

patents. Freescale was Motorola's semiconductor

division in 2004, an independent portal. Therefore,

there is some cooperation between Apple and

Freescale.

However, entrants to this type of HTC, although by the

Google Android open platform and similar destructive

innovative attempt to open up a road, but seems to fall

into the Android and Apple and Microsoft camp siege.

HTC holding which chips are available, in addition to

the acquisition of S3 Graphics to the patent, but also

more chips to the job.

This is an apple war Android camp, it now appears the

apple slightly to stand upwind.
