HTC To Appeal Over Apple's Patent Ruling [bbc.co.uk]

Taiwanese mobile phone company HTC has said it will appeal against a US ruling that it infringed two Apple patents. If Friday's ruling by the US International Trade Commission is not overturned, the US may ban imports of some HTC phones. HTC and Apple are rivals in the smartphone market and analysts said the ruling may have industry-wide implications.
