Google & Apple are talking about the future of Android

[DateDoc]

Larry Page & Tim Cook have talked and will be meeting to work out the patent issues between the two companies. Most notably that Apple insists Android is a stolen product. Can they stave off a huge legal bill or will they walk away and continue their battles in court?

Even though Apple hasn?t sued Google directly, the iPhone maker?s patent lawsuits against Samsung and HTC Corp. (2498) have targeted features from Android. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs told biographer Walter Isaacson that Android was a ?stolen product.?

Apple considered suing Google directly before filing its first smartphone patent-infringement suit against HTC in 2010, according to a person close to Apple?s legal team.

Apple decided against it after determining that going after the manufacturers of rival smartphones would be a better strategy than building a case against Google, this person said. The Android developer, also owner of the most popular Internet- search engine, gives the mobile operating system away for free to handset makers in exchange for advertising revenue.

The future of Android is that their little whiney fan bois will carry on calling Apple and Apple fan bois cunts and the Apple fan bois will keep calling Android fans cunts.

Brilliant!

Not sure if Beatweek Magazine is a credible source but they are saying Page & Cook are meeting today.

Days after U.S. federal courts handed Apple a landmark win in its patent case against leading Android vendor Samsung and set legal precedent for Apple to score similar victories against other Android vendors including Google itself, Apple and Google are reportedly meeting today to discuss the matter. While some outlets are diplomatically referring to the meeting as ?talks,? the more accurate description would be terms of surrender?
