The war between Nokia and Apple has gone to another level now. The iPhone maker has filed a countersuit against the Finnish mobile maker claiming that the company is infringing 13 of its technology patents. The suit was filed today in the Federal court in Wilmington, Delaware.
In the short statement issued, Bruce Sewell, Apple’s General Counsel said, ”Other companies must compete with us by inventing their own technologies, not just by stealing ours.”
Earlier in October, Nokia had filed a lawsuit against Apple claiming that the iPhone maker had infringed 10 of its patents and asked for a compensation on usage with interest. Nokia had claimed that the technology used for the wireless data, speech coding, security and encryption in iPhone belong to Nokia.
