Kodak Sues Apple and RIM Over Camera Patents
Good, somebody needs to sue Apple!
Apple is a bunch of punks always trying to sue Nokia and others. It's Apple's turn to be sued now!
...
Yeah, yeah I know. Im just glad Apple is being given a taste of how they treat other companies, that's all.
...
Actually...Nokia sued Apple for patent infringement. It also sued just about every other major phone manufacturer in existance, including some of the small-time ones. There was a list of like 80 companies included in the lawsuit. Apple *counter-sued* Nokia because Nokia was looking for back royalties on 33.7mil. in iPhone sales. That was just what they requested of Apple. Not to mention the other companies.
...
The difference between Apple an Samsung is that Samsung settled out of court while Apple is smart enough to to let the court decide. Apple rarely settles out of court because Steve Jobs inderstands the simple maxim "innocent till proven guilty".

And, when they lose in court they'll not only be out a ton of money, but also a lot more in lawyer fees!

To Apple and other larger corporations, this is nothing. Legal fee's to them (not talking settlements) are like you buying a candy bar in Walmart.

Right, some of the reason why products cost so much is because they work lawyers fees into the price. Companies like Apple, McDonald's and Ford all know that everyone wants a piece of their success. These companies know the only true way to protect themselves is by having a large fund set up for lawyers- it hurts the consumer more than anyone when lawsuits like this occur. We pay for both the investigation (through taxes) and the trial (through buying the companies products).
