HTC appears to be covering all bases concerning the recent ITC ruling which found the Taiwanese company infringing on two of Apple’s patents. Earlier this week HTC said they were seeking some sort of licensing deal with Apple. But late yesterday, HTC CFO Winston Yung told Reuters that the company is in fact in the process of filing an appeal, citing a “strong case”.
HTC’s recent purchase of S3 Graphics could possibly help not only in this current case with Apple, but with other smartphone manufacturers as well considering S3′s own unique yet popular patents.
Look for a final verdict December 6th.
