The Neverending Patent War

We are all familiar with the patent war that is raging on between the cell phone giants. This week I read an article about how this patent war is continual and ongoing. Mind you, this article was more than a year old. And the fact that it could pass for an article written just a few days ago stands as testament of how long and drawn out, similar to this sentence, this patent war has been. The current war revolves around a lot of fourth generation technology employed in our smartphones. But even this fourth generation tech like its third generation predecessor will fast become outdated and unpopular.

The eventual emergence of an even newer generation technology will dominate the market for the near future as this technology makes itself apparent. With that being said; there is bound to be an entirely new patent war with newer technology at its front and center. Get ready to see plenty of more news articles highlighting the ongoing clash of the titans between Apple and Samsung. It was 3G, now it's 4G, and will eventually move on.
