"At the end of the day this deal isn’t about royalties. It is about trying to kill Android."

Tell me again about how patents give companies incentives to develop new things for consumers? How, exactly, do consumers (who seem to be voting for Android in the Marketplace) benefit from this patent thinger?

This is a pretty big story, I wonder why it didn't get more attention here. Some really dirty play, if it's true. Of course, it could very well be patent business as usual.
