Apple and Samsung working on settlement talks once again

According to Korea Times, the legal battle
between the tech giants of Apple and Samsung
may be coming to an end. Of course we’ve seen
that before, only to also watch it crash and burn ,
but according to the Korean news publication,
both companies have resumed talks to settle
patent disputes out of court and if all goes
according to plan, will end the multi-year battle
between the two companies as early as the end
of summer. Both are discussing royalty payments
and the possibility of cross-licensing to avoid
future court battles.
This news does come of last week’s
announcement that Apple would be dropping
patent disputes with both Motorola and Google.
Should the two companies come to an agreement
in ending the great patent wars, this will bode a
different direction for all companies involved as
there are also discussions about a cease fire
(cease litigation) for a certain period of time on
future disputes.
