Company sued Apple for patent mess

[Luisks]

that to everyone's iPad speaking, Apple got bad news today when he learned that the Taiwanese company Elan Microelectronics filed a complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), claiming the company infringed on patents related Jobs to four multi-technology products: iPhone, iPod Touch, MacBook and Magic Mouse. When the tablet debut on Saturday, would ignore list to five.

What Elan called before the committee? Simple: Apple can not sell these products in the United States, for they feel that their patent is essential for the detection of several fingers simultaneously on the screen. The company has been filing lawsuits since April 2009, until he turned to the ITC to prevent Apple interne their products to the U.S.

The history of Apple and demand has increased in recent months with accusations crossed with Nokia, HTC and now demand this indictment, which could complicate the distribution of the most important company of the apple bite.

I find is suspicious all these company's are claiming patent infringements all of a sudden. This happens all the time in the technology industry, but all of it on the touch technology is a eyebrow raiser.
