Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] Bose accuses Beats of using patented noise-cancelling tech

Bose has other suits out there and settled one already if I remember correctly.

As in until apple valued the company at 5 billion and made the offer. as
far as I can tell the patents I looked at were kinda obvious but I'm not
a lawyer.

What's the incentive until a product becomes valuable? There's no point
because the winnings wouldn't be worth it.

Well, Beats was apparently worth $3 billion…

Right, which may well be why Bose is going after it right now instead of
earlier when it was worth as much.

On the other hand, Bose may have just recently bought some Beats
noise-cancelling headphones and taken them apart to see how they work
and that may have been when Bose found the patent infringement and they
may have leaped into legal action as soon as they discovered the
infringement.
