Why the Company should be worried!
Even though it may seem like Android is high on their success, but behind it all is a vast amount of lawsuits of both small and large companies, trying to get a piece of this market that could generate many more billions of dollars in the upcoming years. Some of the lawsuits are from very common known companies like Oracle, Microsoft, Barnes & Noble, and even Apple. Wanting licensing fee's on that or stopping of the sale of the products altogether.
The main ten reasons that this story points out why google is worried are the following:
Its patent portfolio falls short.
Litigation is everywhere.
Android is under attack.
It's a matter of survival.
Apple has a strong portfolio.
It might be Microsoft's "in".
Vendor relationships.
It really can stifle innovation.
The future is in doubt.
Nothing will stop the litigation.
What reallly interested me about this blog is that I myself own a android phone, and was unaware of the lawsuits that were going on, and was interested in how this may effect people who own the phone already with google software and what not. I would really like to look farther into this and follow it, to see the outcome. Hopefully I will not be affected personally because my hope is to own an iphone next month when apple releases!
