Apple is Being Sued for Infringing 13 SanDisk Patents

Ireland's Longitude Licensing Ltd and Luxembourg's Longitude Flash Memory Systems S.a.r.l. have filed a
joint patent infringement lawsuit against Apple. The lawsuit involves a whopping 13 counts of infringement
covering most iDevices and iPod models. The plaintiffs are using former SanDisk patents that they now own
against Apple. On longitude's "About" page they note that they recently partnered with Conversant Intellectual
Property Management Inc. ("Conversant") to assist in maximizing the value of our intellectual property.

Interesting to note that Core Wireless sued Apple earlier this month and they're a wholly owned subsidiary
of Conversant. So it's becoming quite evident that this super-patent troll has Apple in their crosshairs. With
patents in hand from SanDisk and Nokia, Conversant and their partners will certainly be keeping Apple legal
busy for some time.
