| Google denies ripping off Apple Google invented some key Android tech two years before Apple released the iPhone, a court was told this week. The second Apple v. Samsung patent infringement trial is underway with Cupertino claiming that five of its patents are being infringed upon by devices such as Galaxy S3, Galaxy S2, Galaxy Tab 10.1. Job's Mob wants $2 billion in damages for the five patents even though they make up a small part of the gizmo's functionality. Samsung claims that some of the features it is alleged to have copied from the iPhone were first developed by Google. Now a key figure in the Android team, Google vice president of Android Hiroshi Lockheimer told the court how it invented some of the technology long before Apple. He told the court that it was important that Android had its own ideas. The team was very passionate about what it was doing and it tried to make Android very different from iOS. There are "thousands" of features in Android Lockheimer says they all aim for ease of use. http://news.techeye.net/mobile/googl...ping-off-apple |
