The patent war is going on around the world. Apple, Microsoft and Google are endless battles, as well as a bunch of others and just patent trolls. If you think that, in our world, you can release the device and do not violate someone's patent, you are wrong. Now it is just a fashion, and Amazon did not pass this sad fate. Here are just a claim presented for Amazon and its Kindle Fire.
No sooner had the first tablet Amazon to enter the market, and already showered first allegation of patent infringement. Smartphone Technologies LLC company accuses Amazon of violating five of its patents. The objects of prosecution were Kindle Fire eReader and Kindle 3G + Wi-Fi. The company is included in the Acacia Research Corporation, and only the name you may have heard. Corporation filed suit against RIM and Apple, and Amazon simply the latest in a list.
Of course the claim is not serious, and even absurd, but this will be dealt with in court.Patent trolls want money and they do not care what it means to achieve. Therefore, the first dig at Amazon is already running, and then we will only get worse. We hope that the company will rise to these challenges and will release its Kindle Fire in time, and patent trolls go hungry.
