with that patent suit apple is more aiming towards android devices, i think they let the hd2 mostly out of the picture becouse they think its not as much a threat to their iphone.

I am sure Apple kept AT&T from adopting the HD2 as it would have stolen sales from the iPhone

These types of patent lawsuits take months to settle. Throw in appeals and were talkin years. Tmobile's HD2 release is safe.

I think Steve Jobs realizes android >iOS and that to 'stay alive' he's gona have to sue and literally stop the competition before there is any.

True, but I see it as ' apple vs any major threat' i.e, major runners are sumsung and htc for now.

the gov't probably wouldn't do anything to help or harm the situation. i think the best way to go from this comes from apple's lawyer. if the lawsuit isnt merited and the lawyer filed it anyway, there could be rule 11 violations

The problem with that is the law is so easily bent you can easily justify almost anything.
Especially in technology.

Oh sigh. I'm getting sick of this joker. Honestly. I think he's actually making Bill Gates look like a fricken boy scout.

Do we? Don't most of the rumors still strongly point to Samsung?
Personally I dig it only because I like Google and want to see them armed with an arsenal of patents so that Android won't be killed by patent trolls. Never had a Moto phone myself but I haven't heard great things. Aren't they known for having crappy, break apart build quality?

yeah its still up in the air to who the next nexus phone is going too.

Well I will probably get flack for this, but here goes. Before you get all happy about this aquisition by Google. Remember who Motorola has been in bed with for the better part of their phone "Greatness" , Verizon . The original we're going to throttle your data, you better not be tethering (even though your paying for unlimited) , if we can't charge you for it you can't do it, we're going to control everything you do on your phone carrier. So even though it's Google new company, the employees are still the old regime. With the old habits, especially the Executives. I'll always remember a quote from one of Verizon's press releases stating " the Companies bottom line is always the most important aspect in considerations involving customers" . I understand this true for any company. But to say it in a press release like that says a lot about how they perceive their customer base. Yes, I understand this is only my opinon

No flack here,you make avalid point

Wouldn't make sense. HTC makes great phones but do not have the large patent portfolio that Moto has built up over many years in the mobile industry.
^ Shift Faced

i live in seattle and googles from redmond, theyve been on the news about this quite a bit and theyve even said themselves they just wanted the patent portfolio to help in defending android and the developers against apple, microsoft and the rest of the other bull**** patent trolls.

I see where this will certainly help Google, and Motorola, with regards to patent lawsuits. But how will this help Samsung, and HTC? Is Google going to step in, and say "Get out of here, patent troll....check this out....PWNT!!!"

I'd imagine that since these patents are typically incredibly vague such as "scrolling menus" that if Apple sues HTC or Samsung over infringing on one of their vaguely worded patents then Google could jump in and brandish one of their equally vague patents and say that Google actually has the patent for it, not Apple.
^ Shift Faced

just so yall know i didnt see a splash screen for this new motoroogle or googlerola or whatever you want lol (it has only been a day) so i decided to make one. I posted it on im.nick.hellos new thread for splash screens along with some others i made.
I just have to wait for him to convert them into splash img format and a flashable.
SO GO CHECK IT OUT
BTW: I hope im not hijacking the thread. I dont think i am because it is technically about the thread in a way. but if i am please set me straight!
Edit: In regards to the post above there is no real reason to buy HTC
1)they are doing great on there own
2) HTC would not give up sense and google would not want sense
3) HTC would be like 3X the amount that Motorola was
4)Motorola already had made the commitment to android and that was its sole operating system unlike HTC where they make phones for WP7 and Android.
4) Motorolas patent portfolio is much bigger
5) Motorolas not getting sued lol
Just my 2 cents theres probably other reasons too

Google did it for the Patents

I heard its to help cover their a$$ with apple lawsuits

odd that RIM is dropping so much. No, wait, I just turned in my work BB and use my personal EVO for work too. Work email / calendar and contacts take up such an insignificant part of a phone now it's no wonder RIM is tanking when their entire platform is built off connecting to an enterprise server for three, minute operations.

It looks like they may be moving away from the BES with the QNX OS.
I know, rumour and conjecture, but they say a picture speaks a thousand words.

Man I rocked so many Blackberries back in the day it's not even funny, seemed like every phone I owned for a while or upgraded to was another version of the BB. I can't really say bad things about RIM because their phone treated me better than any in the past, up until the Evo hit the shelves... I'm not at all surprised Android is on top of the charts, just about everyone I see now a days is on a Droid! Like the commercial says, "Droid Does!" & "Apple wishes it DID".

Thought this was entertaining.

Add in all new icons and alot of android and what do you have? IOS 7!!

But that's exactly the thing, my dear Nexus, we cannot get along. I wish too that we could, but with Apple, that's just never going to happen. I personally don't mind that they take stuff from Android, it's open source after all and free for the taking, but the way Apples takes it is just blatantly rude. They not only take it, but they also claim they invented it and were overly innovative and are also willing to go to court with whoever originally made it.
They have the USPTO on their pay roll and the fact that it's an American company, means the US will favor them over any other company.

As proven by the numerous law suits they are currently involved in against any competitors. Pretty soon they will have copyrighted and patented all the Android features they have just stolen and will be busy filing claims against half the world.
