“In light of Android’s patent problems it’s surprising that Google didn’t outbid everyone else. It could have afforded more than $4.5 billion but it doesn’t appear to be truly committed to Android.”
Love that : “google patent problem” is everyone on earth “patent problem”. Nobody should have to pay that amount of money for a stack of paper describing ideas. Those articles make me sick.
