The legal battles continue in the technology market and although it seemed that Apple was too busy fighting Samsung continuously, also decided to undertake legal action offensives against HTC.

An accusation of patent did it by means of indicating that HTC was using Apple’s patents in mobile devices without the corresponding license. At the end of the confrontation, the International Trade Commission has determined that HTC is guilty of violating the Apple patent number 5.946.647 that relates to user interfaces and mobile internal structures.

HTC has violated Apple products and patents. The verdict is linked to the phone software and has been subject to an import ban which will come into force on April 19, 2012. The ITC has said that HTC devices may continue to send replacement products have been sold.

Obviously a lock on certain products of HTC is a blow to the company, and since it is a verdict related to the software, other companies that use Android grateful not feel anything. Because of that from April 2012 HTC may not continue to sell its existing devices, the company, from the hand of Peter Chou, CEO, ensures that it is already testing new phones that can avoid the problem of patents.

This is the only solution for the company to continue distributing devices and taking advantage of huge sales that occur in the United States. It is believed that the models currently in hand and to be exhausted by April 2012, could come into rebates and discounts so you do not have problems with excess stock units of these smartphones that previously have demonstrated their potential. On this occasion is that Apple has expired and so complete.
