Though Nokia’s financial results are not satisfying, the company doesn’t lose in all areas. I’m talking about the war between Apple and Nokia, where the Finnish manufacturer won the lawsuit. That time no official fee size was mentioned, but now we know that Nokia will get $615 million (430 million euro).
We don’t know whether the whole sum will be paid by Apple or there are other companies to compensate Nokia, but it’s a fact that the company’s budget will be enhanced with such a sum.
I personally don’t think that sum is enough, because Nokia has almost 10,000 key wireless patents referring to user interface and core features like multitasking, data syncing and positioning, which could help the company to restore its authority. But Apple will get away paying just $615 million.
I hope Nokia will be more careful and won’t let other companies snatch its success, because Apple’s case can become an example for those manufacturers who want to succeed by using other companies’ developments.
