Nokia files complaints against Vitelcom on patent infringements
November 04, 2004


Nokia Corporation announced today that it has filed patent infringement complaints against Vitelcom. These are European complaints involving Nokia patents covering GSM and GPRS technologies. Nokia seeks injunctions against the continued sale and marketing of Vitelcom's mobile phone products covered by the patents in suit and/or monetary damages.

"Nokia has invested considerable time, energy and resources in its own R&D, which has yielded many significant inventions and allowed Nokia to build one of the industry's largest portfolios of technology patents," said Ilkka Rahnasto, Vice President, IPR, Nokia. "Vitelcom should play by the rules and licence needed intellectual property. In this situation, it has become necessary to take the dispute to the courts. We believe Vitelcom is using Nokia patented technologies without authority from or compensation to Nokia."

Nokia is the leading patent owner for GSM and GPRS technologies. Nokia has a particularly strong patent portfolio for improved voice quality, mobile data and usability of mobile phones. Nokia has a licensing program to allow new manufacturers to make GSM and GPRS phones at fair and reasonable licensing terms.

This has been addressed. Nok must prove that IDCC has had a tendency to sue in order to convince the Delaware court that it has jurisdiction over its declaratory judgment action. I do not believe that the final amended complaint will have this language. Nok will take the deposition of an IDCC representative with most the knowledge of its patent enforcement policy in order to prove that a suit for infringement is eminent.

Why waste time pleading articles when you can take a live video deposition of Jorma. This guy believes that independent patent royalty is an evil to his industry as much as Colonel Jessup believed in "code red" is necessary in the marine corp.. Deep down Jorma wants to tell his perception of the truth to America and the rest of the world regardless of whether we can handle it or not. He should be easy pickins for a good trial lawyer that will lead him out on a long limb and then saw it off. Did you contact other executives of manufacturing companies in an effort to have them agree with your idea to fix the amount of royalty these independent invention maggots can get for your hard earned manufacturing efforts? You're damned right I did and I will do it again to put these people out of business. Can you say "case closed". There are some clients that you just cannot control no matter how much woodshedding takes place.
