As if we need another patent infringement case on the books for any of our Android manufacturing partners. Alas, it looks like another one is underway. HTC, Huawei, ZTE and Pantech are all going to be investigated by the international Trade Commission after claims of of patent infringements were brought forward from FlashPoint Technology.The USITC said the investigation is pointed towards a number of certain electronic imaging devices. Pretty much aiming their sites at mobile phones, tablets and anything else these companies make that have imaging capabilities. Which puts many great Android devices in the cross fire.
It could spell some trouble for the 4 manufacturers, but not enough to warrant grey hair over. Seems like another case of patent trolling if you ask us. Especially after finding another article from back in November of 2011, where Flahpoint attempted the same sort of patent claim and was dismissed.

Time for an update. I am the proud father of three, 2, 8, and 11. I finally just moved up from the Samsung Vibrant to the Samsung Galaxy S III...... Let me tell you, it is mind blowing. I love Android, I love tech and I love my family. Not in that order though. I work to hard, play even harder and take care of all that are around me when I can.
