T-Mobile Joins Verizon in Defense of Samsung Against Apple

Sep 28, 2011, 5:50 PM by Eric M. Zeman

T-Mobile today filed a brief with the U.S. International Trade Commission in support of Samsung in its legal troubles with competitor Apple. "While T-Mobile respects intellectual property rights and believes that owners of intellectual property deserve the right to present their arguments and evidence of infringement in court, a preliminary injunction is a drastic and extraordinary measure, and the courts should pay particular attention to its public consequences," said the company in a statement. Earlier this week, Verizon Wireless voiced its support for Samsung, saying that a ban against Samsung would hurt its sales and its ability to deploy its Long Term Evolution 4G network. Apple and Samsung have a handful of lawsuits over smartphone patents in a growing number of countries around the world.

Just do what Microsoft did

Collect some money for each unit sold. Don't block all untis from being sold.
