And in retaliation news...
The patent war between Apple and HTC has just gotten a little more interesting. HTC has now filed suit against Apple for its infringement of three patents, two of which HTC just acquired in April in its purchase of ADC Telecommunications.

Looks like a tactic to get Apple off HTC's back.. I like it.. What do you guys think?
I can't decide if its a good move or not....
You gotta think that these guys are smart enough to sue someone knowing they have a legit shot at getting something out of it.
I can't imagine the geniuses behind HTC Corp. are gonna just pick a few patents out of a hat and 'go with it'. That would be dumb.
Boom goes the dynamite

this is all getting way to crazy
I wish I could read legaleese to define exactly what apple is infringing on,just for information's
sake. I do feel that Apple needs to get a clear message to sit down..if they got a stranglehold
on the market they would just be setting themselves up for more lawsuits..in turn screwing the
Consumer base that saved their ass.. *disclaimer * I gots no love for apple
Props to HTC, I'm tired of Apple and their patent on everything that pertains to technology and how they sue anyone they deem a legitimate competitor.
I hope HTC wins all their suits and Apple goes away with their lawsuit tantrum.
yea apple deserves whats coming to them. stop trying to dominate. its androids turn.
Good for HTC, maybe they will get lucky and win. Stick that in your iHole apple!

Well, there are some reasons why too. Also, despite all the cult-like Apple followers out there, they certainly don't seem to be all that 'brand loyal' after all.

I guess if you'll buy an iPhone, you'll pretty much fall for anything a guy tells you. Heyoooo!
Well I just came back from one of the corporate stores here in my town. Funny thing is, most of the female employees were using Blackberry phones...and they weren't bad looking either
I would have thrown out the "Hey BBM me!" but...yea
More sexual partners /= more sex.

****ing funny
all we have to do is consider the source....Huff post? come on, i wouldnt wipe my ass with that thing (too many stickies on my monitor)
we all know that the dumb ones are the easy ones right? so does this mean that all iphone users are stupid as well? (we all know that to be true anyway)
on the other hand if I werent happily married I would sure go trolling for iphones now.
So I guess this guy isn't after the "easy" ones http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7527391&postcount=1
The amount of jealousy in this thread is epic. Hahahaha.
Why on earth do people even give these "surveys" credibility? I'm sorry but asking 10000 people a question doesn't speak for the millions out there.

no jealousy, just havin some fun....besides whats to be jealous of? the fact that now the iphone made it to the bottom feeders of the media in a bottom feeding pole? LOLOL
If only you knew how many girls came up and started talking to me because of how big my EVO was...
and i'm sure a large percentage of the guys are gay too.
Did anyone else notice that, regardless of phone choice, the women had more sexual partners than the men?

I mean really, epic win for motorola's marketing team
Motorola can suck it. Did we all forget they are trying to keep there phones from being unlocked? Also, cant you unlock the iPhone and get flash that way?
Lastly, most of us unlock our phones so we can get the extra featuers the devs left out or the carriers locked us from. Personaly the iPhone is just as capable if not better and doing some of the stuff our phones do. Not only that but it paved the way for Android. I never owned an I phone my rep on PPCGeeks is far above my posts so I am not a fan boy flagging you blind fools. Just stating the obvious. Ill probably never own an iPhone. Something about apple I just cant get it. They market these devices that all do the same thing. An iPod touch is an iPhone without the phone. Why would you need both and many people do by both. Whatever, not that you guys are idiots but there are just to many idiots spending money on something as dumb as an iProduct. Steve Jobs easily owns the pawns that by his crap.
Dang I am just contradictive today.
two things i love about iphone - games and battery life
other wise i prefer everything else about the evo
but to increase battery life i'm getting a second battery tomorrow - another thing iphone can't do haha
also i am an apple fan myself but not a fanboy of anything
preferances
android
mac os
my view on this matter is "no product is better then the other, just one happens to have features you like better then the other"
So a CNN new report says that a Sprint Spokes Woman indicated that Sprint is looking to expand their network using this Technology.
"Sprint is talking to Alcatel Lucent about this technology and we will be working with them to test and evaluate it," a Sprint spokeswoman said. "We have been aggressive in smaller factor cell sites to help us support the growth in data traffic."
Full Article http://money.cnn.com/2011/03/21/technology/light_radio/index.htm
This seems like a very solid move for Sprint if all works out with this new technology, Cheaper to operate, faster data transmissions, and better signal all round.
Sprints all mixed up Hesses not sleeping well due to the merger news yesterday
Lucent was always forward thinking as a company when they were Bell Labs. Somehow, it's not surprising to me that this idea is coming from Alcatel Lucent's shop.
And that Sprint is thinking about using these devices shows one, that they know they need to upgrade their 'net, and two, they expect to offer unlimited data into the foreseeable future, especially if these towers-in-a-box prove as deployable as they appear.
Good move, Sprint!!

Best analysis I've heard yet.
Sprint is all over the place with news and speculation. I love it!
I'm actually very nervous about the ATT-T-Mobile move. If this move goes down, Sprint is guaranteed to remain the smallest of the major service providers. If this happens, does Sprint lose their wind, or does this kick them in the pants?

I know, but technically speaking it is still the Intensive Care Unit, and we all are aware of SJ's health issues. I would not want SJ dying of cancer no matter how I feel about the company.
It is like an innocent joke about for example fat people, said by a thin person in presence of an overweight person - not appropriate unless they are true friends and both know they are joking but wishing each other well.
It's the stupid patent system that feeds trolls like crApple.
Microsoft isn't any better crapping about how much they earn from Retailers for every Android Phone they sell:

Understood. Maybe not the most sensitive wording, but I doubt English is his first language. Besides, his post is peppered with smileys, not exclamation points so it's all good.
I'm not a fan of Apple. I'm aggravated that the US doesn't get the coolest Android phone at the same time as the rest of the world. Apple is only delaying the inevitable. How do you compete against open source and the world's hardware heavy hitters? What do you do when you're getting beaten it terms of volume and specs? You sue, of course. And pretend everyone is copying you and that you didn't borrow and repackage anything from anyone else. I hate the patent system.
So now we have to wait. Great, three months is like an eternity in Internet years.
Craziness man. They know that sales are going up again due to jellybean. So try to ban it.

Wow. All I can say is wow. How can people support a company like apple which tries to unfairly beat the competition by banning their products? They need to focus on making their products better instead of sticking with the same design for years and putting lawsuits on other companies.
Samsung won't stop manufacturing for Apple, why? Because it's a large conglomerate. Their manufacturing division is not the same as their consumer electronics division; the Samsung that designs phones purchases from the Samsung that manufactures them. They don't care who they are supplying to, it just has to make money.
With that said, the Samsung that develops phones notoriously mimick Apple hardware in one way or another, thus Apple's constant attention to halting their sales. Just look at how Samsung implemented S-Voice, it's a mere clone of Siri function albeit slower; Google instead goes and one-ups Apple's product rather than matching it. Different philosophies of business.

All this will do is push the Nexus sales through the roof before the ban hits, which will fill the lull until its thrown out like everything else and things will return to normal until they find the next thing to sue over.
