msmobiles article

It must be big irony, that while Google is not demanding money from manufacturers of Android phones, due to Microsoft's patents these manufactures have to pay money to Microsoft

story sounds like bull to me. They didn't mention what the IP infringement's were and I doubt Google are going to develop a software platform by ripping off other companies. Google didn't get were they are today by doing that!

it's called FUD.

MS tried to do that with linux, but they have never stated what IP was infringed. the reason: because there aren't any patent infringments. it's all about FUD
