IBM's patent deal with Google Excerpts: Google could also sell some of those patents to embattled Android device makers such as HTC. HTC could then, for example, use them in countersuits or counterclaims against Apple, possibly with an obligation to sell the patents back to Google after the dispute. I don't know if IBM ever licensed any of these patents to Oracle. If it did, Google would not be able to use the related patents as leverage against Oracle. The same applies to any other company in the industry, be it Apple, Microsoft, Nokia or you name them. How strong is Google now? If there are encumbrances that limit Google's ways to use those patents, the strength of this package deal could be much less than it appears at first sight. fosspatents.blogspot.com
