A month after being granted U.S. patent No. 7,441,196, a company in Los Angeles called EMG Technology is suing Apple for “the way the iPhone navigates the Internet,” according to a press release. The suit did not specify the damages EMG is seeking, but the company has hired a serious gun: Stanley Gibson, one of the lead trial attorneys who won the $1.35 billion patent infringement lawsuit against Medtronic.
Well it’s good to know that real estate agents can beat Apple to the punch. What’s next? I suppose Quickie Lube guys will go after the “G” sensors embedded in a phone.
