HTC Unfazed By ITC Ruling, Says Easy Software Fix Planned
Dec 20, 2011, 8:39 AM by Eric M. Zeman
HTC called Monday's ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission a "victory," despite the fact that the ITC found HTC guilty of violating a smartphone patent held by Apple. HTC claims a victory because the company was faulted on only one of ten Apple patents in question. With regard to the impending ban on some of its phones, the company said in statement on Tuesday, "Since the infringing elements identified by the ITC involve and impact only a very minimal part of the user interface, we will remove it as soon as possible and sell non-infringing products." HTC implied that it will be able to make this change long before the ban goes into effect on April 19, 2012.
