I knew this day would come. I can\u2019t say that I hoped for it, but in all honesty, it was inevitable. Apple has been very busy lately in doing all it can to ban as many Android devices as it can, and HTC, Samsung, and Motorola have all got a small taste of the Apple juice<\/a> lately. But something has changed: Google<\/strong><\/em><\/span> now owns Motorola, and aren\u2019t wasting any time in defending their new acquisition, as they are now seeking a sales ban on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers in the US. This time, it\u2019s personal, and contains a twist that could make this particular lawsuit a very dangerous one for Apple.<\/p>\n

This is the first case that Google<\/strong><\/em><\/span> has signed off on in defending their new hardware company, meaning that there\u2019s no more lurking in the background<\/a> providing support. This is full on Google<\/strong><\/em><\/span> with their lawyers directly involved, and with the Big G not only watching, but acting. But Google<\/strong><\/em><\/span> and Motorola were clever. This isn\u2019t a lawsuit that deals with silly topics such as icons or square shaped tablets.<\/p>\n

Google<\/span><\/strong><\/em> and Motorola are filing patent infringement for non-standard essential patents. To put it simply, Google<\/span><\/strong><\/em>-rola has filed a case for a patent\/patents that courts cannot legally force companies to patent, meaning that if they win this case, Apple could be forced to completely stop using the patent in their devices.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t have exact confirmation on which Wifi related patent is in question here, but we do know that Motorola attempted to reach licensing agreements with Apple (since 2010), which Apple apparently refused. Motorola stated that:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe would like to settle these patent matters, but Apple\u2019s unwillingness to work out a license leaves us little choice but to defend ourselves and our engineers\u2019 innovations<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is a big one for Google<\/strong><\/em><\/span> and for Apple. This isn\u2019t just an OEM that Apple is dealing with now. This is one of the most powerful (if not THE most powerful) movers and shakers in the world. If this comes to trial, Apple will have its hands full, and might even be forced to rely on Microsoft <\/a>for backup.<\/p>\n

The patent wars involving Android and Apple have now reached a new level, and with Google<\/strong><\/em><\/span> in the center, I have a feeling that things could get very very ugly for the companies that have sought to ban Android products.<\/p>\n
