Cisco hired a law firm to write a summary, which they made public: http://www.duanemorris.com/memo/VP8Compilation.pdf

TL/DR: VP8 was found not to infringe one patent. The other proceeding in the German courts was stayed until it was determined if the patent was valid. Before that could happen, Nokia and HTC settled all of their outstanding suits for some undisclosed amount. All remaining actions between those two parties were dismissed without prejudice (including the VP8 lawsuits). Separately, Google is still proceeding with two lawsuits in Germany to get the Nokia patents declared invalid.

Nokia just announced an Android tablet, running Lollipop 5.0 (which requires VP8 and VP9), it also uses an intel chipset with VP8 encode and decode.

Does that trigger any of the reciprocal patent grant thingies that VP8 (and 9?) have and remove Nokia's patents from the picture?

Thanks, that sounds pretty promising.
