Canon wins second SED bout
Canon has successfully defended itself against a second charge relating to SED displays. In the first lawsuit, a US District Court ruled against Canon, saying that by sharing SED information with Toshiba, it had violated an exclusive agreement with the technology's source, Nano-Proprietary. Nano also filed a fraud accusation however, which has just now been defeated on the basis that the company suffered no real damages as a result of Canon's actions. The latter is in fact intending to appeal the first ruling, which broke the agreement and allowed Nano to lay claim to the $5.5 million Canon paid. [via DigiTimes]
