thewayneWow. This right here shows precisely why the patent wars will probably never go away. Microsoft doesn't make anything in Android OS, doesn't contribute to the Android OS, and is making 95% profit on that. The 5%, or roughly $10 million, is probably off to lawyers and acquiring more patents.
It's a good thing they're making so much pure profit on their Android patents, it makes their Xbox and Windows Phone lines look profitable.
