Clearly Apple is not counting on the courts to rescue Apple from the Apple Watch patent mess that they find themselves in. According to a report, here’s what Apple is working on:
Winning the brief stay fulfilled one part of Apple’s multi-pronged approach to recover from the ITC’s decision. Apple’s plans for a comprehensive solution to the patent fight also include redeveloped software now submitted to a US customs agency, that could allow it to sell non-infringing versions of the devices as soon as Jan 12, all while continuing to appeal the ITC loss.
This is an interesting approach. I say that because Masimo’s CEO has said that the patents that Apple violated are hardware patents. Perhaps I am missing something, but how do you fix a hardware issue with software? I guess we’re going to find out because if Apple isn’t going to pay off Masimo, and if they lose in court on appeal, this software fix is their only option.
