| Microsoft tightens hold on Android Software giant Microsoft has tightened its ligature on the throat of Android by making a deal with Qisda. For those who came in late, Microsoft makes a huge pile of money from Android by owning some of the key patents behind the operating system. If a phone maker issues an Android phone, it has to pay Microsoft for some of its patented technology. This is a big percentage, some say that a couple of bucks from the sale price will go to the Redmond Volehill. http://www.techeye.net/mobiles-2/mic...old-on-android |
