I guess Motorola wants to share the lawsuit pain. The word has hit the wires that Motorola has sued Apple for infringing on 18 of their patents:
Overall, Motorola Mobility’s three complaints include 18 patents, which relate to early-stage innovations developed by Motorola in key technology areas found on many of Apple’s core products and associated services, including MobileMe and the App Store. The Motorola patents include wireless communication technologies, such as WCDMA (3G), GPRS, 802.11 and antenna design, and key smartphone technologies including wireless email, proximity sensing, software application management, location-based services and multi-device synchronization.
But wait, there’s more. Motorola has also filed complaints with the U.S. International Trade Commission, seeking to prevent importation and sale of the infringing products.
Prediction: Expect Apple to countersue in the next few weeks. After all, they have to keep the iLawyers busy.
