Apple and Nokia have been going at it for a while. In 2009, Nokia filed a patent infringement suit against Apple, and since then the two companies have been throwing arounds suits and complaints like hotcakes.
Nokia says Apple in infringing on its patents. Apple says Nokia is infirning on its patents. Finally, a few days ago, a judge ruled that Apple had not violated any of Nokia's patents, but obviously, Nokia wasn't going to let it go there.
So now, we have a new complaint from Nokia filed with the United States International Trade Commission (ITC), claiming that Apple infringes upon additional Nokia patents in "virtually all of its mobile phones, portable music players, tablets and computers."
From Nokia's announcement:
The seven Nokia patents in the new complaint relate to Nokia's pioneering innovations that are now being used by Apple to create key features in its products in the areas of multi-tasking operating systems, data synchronization, positioning, call quality and the use of Bluetooth accessories.
This second ITC complaint follows the initial determination in Nokia's earlier ITC filing, announced by the ITC on Friday, March 25. Nokia does not agree with the ITC's initial determination that there was no violation of Section 337 in that complaint and is waiting to see the full details of the ruling before deciding on the next steps in that case.
