Samsung will pay Microsoft to sell phones with Google Android


Rest assured, friends, I have not taken any illegal substance and I'm not trying to cast two or three kilometers above sea level. No, and it is not an error, even if it resembles it strongly. For indeed, imagine that Samsung will now pay Microsoft a royalty for each mobile in the Google Android sold. Knowing that the Galaxy S 2 has just crossed the symbolic threshold of 10 million sales, we can say that it could do a lot of brouzoufs. But of course, Google does not hear at all that way and we understand completely the firm ...



Above all, be aware that this is not the first time that Microsoft's competitors to attack this way. No, Acer and HTC have already gone to the fund. HTC, for example, is obliged to repay as much as $ 5 a smartphone sold. Why? How? Just because Google Android use patents owned by Microsoft. It's not really surprising since large firms of the world of patents for everything and nothing (like the left click, scroll wheel mouse, the keys on a keyboard, etc etc ...). In this context, one might almost say that everyone violates patents everyone.

And usually, everything goes pretty well. But now, the big problem is that the smartphone market is very very profitable. We can even say that there are millions and millions to be. Note also that, in recent years, computer and mobility sector is increasingly confused. And we understand why most firms officiating on the field of new technologies embark on this new niche. Except that now, they do not meet all the success and that's what a Google spokesman highlighted. He stated: "Failure to succeed in the market for smartphones, Microsoft relies on legal measures to extract profits from the success of others and may impede the pace of innovation." It pruning, for sure.

The funny thing is yet to come because Microsoft has paid more the luxury of signing a new agreement with Samsung. Yes, and imagine that the Korean automaker will now do everything to help the development and commercialization of ... Windows 7 Phone! We do not know the inside story, of course, but no doubt Samsung's negotiations with Microsoft to avoid court. And we understand the company, after all she has a lot to do with Apple ...
