Tech Company is in issue: Microsoft sues Motorola over Android phones

I am talking about big tech company Microsoft and Motorola.

Issue:        company’s android powered phones infringed on nine patents                             held by the software giant.

Yes, this complaint was submitted by Microsoft. Microsoft sued Motorola Friday on 2/10/2010 claiming that the company’s android-powered phones infringed on nine patents held by the software giant. 

According to a statement by Microsoft deputy general counsel horacia Gutierrez,  the alleged infringements centre on the way Motorola’s phone synchronize e-mail, calenders, contacts, and meetings,  and in the way it notifies the users of changes in signal strength and bettery power. Microsoft said that it filed the action at the international trade commission and the US District Court in Washington. 

WE HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO OUR CUSTOMERS, PARTENERS AND SHAREHOLDERS TO SAFEGUARD THE BILLIOND OF DOLLARSWE INVEST EACH YEAR IN BRINGING INNOVATIVE SOFTWARE PRODUCTS.AND SERVICES TO MARKET” Gutierrez said,  
Motorola needs to stop its infringement of our patented inventions in its android smart phones.”

The suits come 10 days before Microsoft launches the new version of its mobile software, which it hopes will win back market share from Apple Inc's iPhone and Google.Microsoft said it filed its actions against Motorola at the International Trade Commission and in federal court in Seattle.

 Microsoft sis nit name yet google, which makes the android operating system, as a party to suit.  Earlier Microsoft will make software licensing agreement with another android phone maker, HTC. In my last article I have described more on progress of HTC. Click here to read about HTC.

 Now in next generation of tech Microsoft prepares to launch its windows phone 7, which it hopes will rival android and the iphone in the smartphone market. So, make your eye on new phone releasing in I think 2011.
