Nokia sued OPPO almost two frustrating years ago, and InterDigital's campaign started almost 16 months back and is not likely to yield results in Germany anytime soon. [read post]

Just to make some famous examples among EU registrations, one can think of the lilac/violet colour of the packaging of Milka chocolate (colour trademark), McDonald’s jingle “I’m lovin’ it” (sound trademark) or the Nokia video of a handshaking displayed on mobile phones when switching on (motion trademark).However, non-conventional trademarks present difficulties in relation to the fulfilment of the requirements for registration.

Meanwhile, it looks like Apple's patent license agreement with Nokia expired a few months ago and hasn't been renewed yet--and the one with InterDigital will expire this week, with no renewal having been announced either.Ericsson continues to enforce a preliminary injunction in Colombia that bars Apple from selling 5G devices--including, but notl limited to, the new iPhone 14--in the Latin American country.

While consolidation of patent ownership positions is still preferable over Nokia- and Ericsson-style privateering, it does raise issues when a company is known to overcharge. [read post]

Counterintuitively, there is no prayer for injunctive relief in those cases, though I remember that Nokia didn't initially request an injunction against Daimler, but later amended its complaints accordingly. [read post]

The reason I suspected the latter is because, based on hearsay from about seven years ago, the European Commission's investigation of Qualcomm's practices with a focus on Nokia (now more of a Qualcomm friend than foe), essentially got derailed by scare of conducting a resource-intensive, complex and somewhat subjective (thus more likely to be overruled) rate-setting exercise.

Injunctions can't possibly be much more automatic.The 4b Civil Chamber denied a motion to stay the case pending the decision of the European Court of Justice on a preliminary reference from another division of the Dusseldorf court in Nokia v. [read post]

It's only a matter of time, and possibly very little time, until Google will also withdraw its patent assertions against Microsoft (a company much less likely to be affected by Motorola's patents because the mobile devices business it just acquired from Nokia has a license deal in place with Motorola).Even though Google's original summer 2011 plan has now officially failed, Google as a company and Android as a platform and ecosystem are winners: since Apple's patents… [read post]

The usual counterargument (made, for example, by Nokia in a submission to the ITU) is that a lower percentage on a broader royalty base will have the same bottom-line result as a higher percentage applied to a narrower base ("as 1% of a base of 100 leads to the same result as 10% of a base of 10, which royalty structure is actually used has no economic relevance, as long as the result reflects the appropriate value for a license").

Motion for Partial Summary Judgment by Florian Mueller on ScribdFor a recap of something discussed in greater detail last year, Qualcomm's business model is basically like this:As Judge Koh recalled in a recent order, "an analysis conducted by Qualcomm in 2015 showed that revenues from Qualcomm's licensing program were 'equivalent in size to the sum of ~12 companies with a form of technology licensing,' including leading cellular SEP licensors such as Ericsson,… [read post]

If judges conclude that the purpose came down to denying NPEs access to injunctive relief, they will rule accordingly--and nothing will change with respect to patent lawsuits brought by organizations like Qualcomm, Nokia, Ericsson, Siemens (who hold far more patents than trolls, and are no less aggressive).There's only one thing I do like about the CDU/CSU press release: they stress that there's an urgent need to act in order to prevent that German companies would be permanently… [read post]

And it's telling that HMD (a licensee of Nokia's trademark) and Gigaset (a German company) are the only device makers to intervene on Google's behalf: they are not the most successful Android device makers to put it mildly and, therefore, in desperate need to suck up to the search monopolist.Google allows at least some major Android device makers additionally to run their own app store on their devices, such as the Samsung Galaxy Store.

Sharp's cases against Daimler are gradually distinguishable from Nokia v Daimler (where the Federal Cartel Office requests the referral of certain component-level licensing questions to the Court of Justice of the EU), given that Sharp doesn't rule out extending true (exhaustive) licenses to component makers.

Hazlett will identify evidence from the network carriers themselves showing that, should Ericsson’s Accused Products be excluded, other suppliers such as Samsung and Nokia are positioned to fill demand for its mmWave base station products, and alternative technologies from 4G, 5G, and other networks are also available.

Those patent holders include Ericsson and, to a far greater extent, Nokia, a company that has sold patents to a number of NPEs in recent years and is itself increasinly turning into a patent assertion entity.This paper is recommended reading for everyone with an interest in smartphone IP issues from a legal and/or economic point of view.

The proceedings before the ITC and the United States District Court for the District of Delaware relating to InterDigital's early-January complaint against Samsung, Nokia, Huawei and ZTE are particularly interesting from a FRAND point of view because this is the first high-profile (and multi-party) FRAND dispute in which the defendants have the full opportunity to leverage the proposed FTC-Google standard-essential patents (SEP) settlement from the get-go.
