The thot plickens. BT alleges that Android violates:
* 6,151,309: a 2000 patent for "service provision system for communications networks"
* 6,169,515: a 2001 patent for a "Navigation information system"
* 6,397,040: a 2002 patent for location tracking of users
* 6,578,079: a 2003 patent for a "communications node for providing network based information service"
* 6,650,284: a 2003 patent for an "information system" with "a fixed part and a mobile part"
* 6,826,598: a 2004 patent for "storage and retrieval of location based information in a distributed network of data storage devices"


The suit was filed in Delaware, I'm curious why they didn't go for West Texas. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. I'm really sick and tired of patent wars, the system has mutated far beyond what it was intended what patents should protect.
