MOTOROLA XOOM NOT VIOLATE I PAD PATENT

Android powerd tablet doesn't violate the APPLE patents said by GERMAN COURT

FOX BUSINESS QUOTED THAT
Apple initially sued Motorola for allegedly infringing three iPad designs with the Xoom. It sought to have the device banned across Europe.Although the judges ruled Motorola's Xoom doesn't infringe on the iPad, the court rejected a counterclaim brought by Motorola alleging the iPad's design patent is invalid, a spokesman for the court said.As the court ultimately rejected both parties' claims, it ordered Apple to pay two-thirds of costs and Motorola to pay a third, the spokesman added.Neither Apple nor Motorola immediately responded to an emailed request for comment.
