Nokia Heats Up Patent War With Apple
December 29, 2009
It seems that the legal battle within Apple and Nokia has taken another turn as Nokia has followed up with a complaint to the US universal Trade Commission (ITC), claiming that virtually all of Apple’s products, including iPods and Mac, violate 7 Nokia patents, not just the iPhone. The patents would involve hardware-related patents for antennas, cameras and potential management, as well as user interfaces. Sometimes you have to wonder whether all these lawsuits are productive, as we seem to be reading more about lawsuits than technological innovations.

Floater concept phone
December 28, 2009
Designer Mac Funamizu is back again with another cellphone concept, where it is known as the Floater due to its surfing maneuver-inspired lines. Floater will remain on the table until there is an incoming signal, where it will nod or rotate to careful you, while a variant known as Floater B comes with a sliding anatomy factor that will reveal a physical keyboard when opened. Guess that is something for those who like subtle handsets without announcing loudly to the rest of the world that there is an incoming shout.

December 14, 2009
Holiday shopping is said to be up compared to last year, but it might be up big instance for Apple. Analysts are reporting that orders for components used to build the iPhone, among other devices, have spiked up and that could mean that Apple might ship and build up to 10M phones that quarter. That would be quite a milestone whether that was confirmed later that year.
On the computer side, Mac shipments are up 21% compared to last year according to retail sources. Desktops are up 74% while laptops are up by 5%. We wonder how many desktop Macs are the new 27" iMac. [via appleinsider, electronista]
