You may already know Microsoft has forced five Android vendors to pay royalties each time they ship a device, and is suing Motorola and Barnes & Noble in cases that claim Android steals Microsoft intellectual property.
Patents 5,579,517 and 5,758,352, issued in 1996, "relate to implementing both long and short file names in the same file system," Microsoft says. The complaint goes on to mention the FAT16 file system used by MS-DOS and early versions of Windows.Â
Microsoft claims the Motorola Droid 2, the Droid X and numerous other Motorola Android phones violate these and other patents.
• No. 5,664,133 from 1997 covering "context sensitive menu system/menu behavior," known more generally as a graphical user interface that lets users "quickly and easily select/execute the desired computer resource."
Psovao bih sad al' cu se suzdrzati :)
Jel' moze neko da mi kaze kakva je ovo svinjarija sa long/short file name zezancijom ? Koji fs koriste Android telefoni i za sta ce im short file name support ? Jel' to zato sto neki proizvodjaci formatiraju sd karticu koja dolazi uz telefon kao FAT ?
A ovaj patent iz 97-me necu da komentarisem...
