iOS vs Android Battle Hots Up With Apple So Far Ahead Of The Little Green Robot

Via: ReturnMore.com

Despite Apple recently receiving a minor legal setback in its war against Android and its supporters, Apple made more than up for it with several major and strategic legal victories, victories so large that some are now beginning to believe that Steve Jobs thermonuclear war on Android is now winnable after all, and it's just a matter of time!

Fosspatent's, Florian Mueller pointed out recently, that when it comes to patents and Android, well Google isn't exactly sitting all that pretty right now and he wrote:

"Patent litigation takes time. Most of the patents that large companies have asserted against Android haven't even come to judgment yet, and new assertions continue to be made. But the time has passed for any reasonable, unbiased person to deny that Android has a serious patent infringement problem that continues to exacerbate. Whether or not one subscribes to Steve Jobs's description of Android as a "stolen product", the plot is definitely thickening that Google and its hardware partners face IP issues."

He also wrote, in reference to Google's $12.5 billion purchase of Motorola for its treasure trove of patents:

"While patent litigation is a "you win some, you lose some" kind of game, there can be no doubt that Google and its partners are losing this one on the bottom line. Google's $12.5 billion acquisition of Motorola Mobility hasn't been a game-changer."

In fact, Apple's recent legal victories against Samsung, and hence Android, were so pronounced that Topeka Capitol Market's Brian White, after reflecting on the victories, reiterated a strong Buy rating on Apple shares and gave it a $1,111 price target!  Mr. White wrote that he fully believes that Apple's recent victories will most probably spill over to Samsung's hot, new Galaxy S III and thus becoming a very big problem for the Korean electronic giant, a company that has gained tremendously by copying every little nuance from the iPhone and iOS.

In conclusion, as slow as the wheels of justice may turn, they nonetheless are turning... turning against Android, Google and its OEMS that is! However, according to recent reports, that even without any legal victories what-so-ever, the iPhone and its iOS platform are doing extremely well and are now growing twice as fast as Android as a whole, and when it comes to making money, boy-oh-boy, there's no comparison... iOS wins hands down.





And that's my 2 cents on the glorious Tuesday, July 03, 2012
