<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1111/nokiain.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Nokia isn't too concerned by losing a court case on Friday related to phone patents belonging to patent firm IPCom.

The judge who had overseen the original case, where HTC had sued IPCom to negate its patent, would have to listen to arguments from IPCom as to why the patent was still valid.  I...]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1112/htctitan-handson2.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[IPCom's attempts to sue HTC's store partners to block sales may have been thwarted as a German court has reportedly put in place a preliminary ban on the threats.  The 3G patent holder was said by HTC attorneys to be momentarily blocked from trying to sue any retailer that carries the phones.  The gesture would effectively clear HTC to stay in the German market until the ban was lifted....]]></description>
