Like ``blood diamonds'' should consumers avoid ``patent lawsuit phones?''
I joked today on my podcast that like avoiding buying 'blood diamonds' consumers maybe should avoid 'Patent lawsuit phones' to teach companies a lesson that they are tired of lawsuits and product bans.
Apple Inc. again recently sued HTC Corp. in Taiwan of patent infringement to ask the authorities to ban the sale of Android phones in the US, with the latter's acquisition of S3 Graphics unhelpful to relieve the firm's worry over the dispute.
