Apple & HTC Settle All Litigation

Apple & HTC Settle All Litigation: Late Saturday – on the eve of Armistice Day – Apple and HTC announced that they have settled their patent litigation at the price of a 10-year license agreement that covers “current and future patents held by both parties.”
Terms aren’t being disclosed.
