Glad to hear some politicians haven't swallowed the contra-factual drivel and mind-bogglingly fallacious reasoning coming from the likes of EICTA, the EPO and the UKPO. When Nokia's IPR department can explain exactly why innovation and progress in software now depends on mobile phone manufacturers having a 20 year monopoly right to exclude others from using 'inventions' like this: http://gauss.ffii.org/PatentView/EP1253500 (which - in this not so unusual case - they have actually 'stolen' from others in the first place: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58417 ), then perhaps we'll just have to concede the argument and quietly resign ourselves to our proper place in society: as vile and destructive gangsters rather than creative and innovative geeks: http://wiki.ffii.org/Ipred0504En
