HTC Counter-Sues Apple for Patent Infringement

"We are taking this action against Apple to protect our intellectual property, our industry partners, and most importantly our customers that use HTC phones."
The move is in response to a lawsuit filed by Apple against HTC in March. Apple claims that HTC is infringing on 20 Apple patents related to iPhone technology.HTC is a prominent supplier of Android phones. The original lawsuit was seen as a move directly against Google's Android operating system by Apple. Apple is also currently involved in lawsuits with Nokia over iPhone technologies.

Really? Why can't they just all get along? The only winners here are the lawyers.

HTC can go sniff a cat. A rather smelly cat that does not know how to use the litter box.

This seems to pretty much be a standard procedure these days, right? You sue me, and I counter-sue you in order to gain some leverage.
