Want Free $$? Sue Microsoft.

Quote:


	"Allvoice Developments US, a provider of speech recognition systems, and mobile software developer EMG Technology both filed suits against Microsoft in recent days in the U.S. District Court for Eastern Texas, where judge Leonard Davis a week ago ruled in favor of Toronto-based i4i in its action against Microsoft. "llvoice claims that speech recognition support built into Windows XP and Windows Vista violates its patent on the technology. Allvoice also alleges that Microsoft discussed using its technology in Windows but later rejected it. Allvoice is seeking unspecified damages against Microsoft.

	"EMG, meanwhile, contends that Microsoft's Windows CE, PocketPC, and Windows Mobile products infringe its patent for viewing Web content on a mobile device. EMG also lists investment broker Scottrade and Southwest Airlines in its complaint."

yup, they are coming out of the wood work now to sue Microsoft, and they think they have found the judge to do it with,

the 1st lawsuit, is a seaming plie of bull-donkey. MS chose a different provider for that technology, and they have thier panites in a bunch.

the second one will be a very intresting one to watch. If ms loses, that will be a big blow, as you will see other large companies like apple, palm, nokia, sony , nintendo all get sued. these days its hard to find a moblie device that cant surf the web.

now here is the real question. what can Microsoft do to prevent lawsuits like this?
