Definitely, it becomes increasingly complicated to market mobile phones. After the battle of patents that Apple and Nokia started, and that of Kodak who are sueing Apple and RIM, it is now the turn of Motorola to demand that Blackberry is prohibited from sale in the United States.

In all the cases, in the end, it seems that the software patents produce much more opposition to progress that innovation.
