Yes they thought 2.25% was too high for a FRAND patent. They asked to see what Motorola Mobility had charged other companies. Apple has agreed to license this patent already, but the fee will be set by the court.Originally Posted by 3930K 
Well then stop doubting. Apple refused to licence because they thought 2.25% it of their 77% profit margins is too high. Boo hoo. gigaom.com/mobile/android-this-week-googles-motorola-sues-apple-u-s-gets-note-tablet-google-play-improves/

WiFi patent sounds FRAND to me. I'm not blind? I've never claimed Apple is innocent. And several of Apple's patents are for key multi-touch functionality.Originally Posted by Magariz
You are aware of the wifi patent that Google gained when aquiring Motorola. Apple uses it in their Mac's, iPod's, iPad's, and iPhone's. Apple may have more money but if Google really wants to pursue this they would cripple Apple. No sales in the US would mean a very rapid decline in Apple. For one that is so quick to defend Apple and tell others to see that Apple is just defending their patents, you are blind to see at what they have done wrong. You really need to step back and look at the larger picture. Apple is as corrupt as everyone else they go after.
Samsung may have infringed on patents of Apple's but they are patents that never should have been given. This peticular patent in question that Google now owns is a critical system function, rather than a design or aesthetics concept.
That means that Apple has ZERO chance of winning the lawsuit from Google. Yes Apple is very scared currently as Google virtualy holds the companies future in their hands.
