Nokia Sues Apple For Patent Infringement In iPhone 367
AVee writes "Engadget (amongst many others) reports that Nokia is suing Apple because the iPhone infringes on 10 Nokia patents related to GSM, UTMS and WiFi. While the press release doesn't contain much detail, it does state that Apple didn't agree to 'appropriate terms for Nokia's intellectual property,' which sounds like there have been negotiations about those patents."

Excellent summary--you're just missing one part: after A and B start fighting and refusing to compromise, company (or group) Q comes along and says "These competing standards are getting us nowhere. Thus, we will make a NEW (possibly open) standard, then EVERYONE will be happy!" And then that goes nowhere and company/group Q is never heard from again.

How can people call Nolia a patent troll because some company comes in years after Nokia did all the work and steals the tech??
Because Nolia deliberately named their business with a similar-sounding name, and then tried to make claims on the patents held by Nokia?
