Check Apple patents, check HTC patents. Apple is responsible for bringing the PC to mass market, and the touch interface. HTC has gone from clone PC maker to premium Android phone maker, and many companies think Android is a clone, as the name implies.

Any notion of national preference is silly, HTC simply is the newest company, and thus has the fewest patents, making it the easiest android OEM to sue.

Please support your wild implied claims before making a statement. Apple is just excercising their right, and it would be silly of them not to. Although patent reform should happen one way or another.

Check HTC history. They've been the OEM makers for many smartphones before Apple came out with the iPhone. They made Windows CE and Windows Mobile phones for years. Only when Android was available commercially, they switched to Android.

Touch interface? Apple deployed capacitive touch commercially, but resistive touch has been out for a very long time.

Aye。

HTC also under MS's patent sue.

Jobs wants to wipe Android out of the world, and HTC maybe the easiest step.
