Over my dead body
We reported a few days ago that US communications firm Lucent Technologies are suing Microsoft over a patent called, "Adaptive Coding and Decoding of Frames and Fields of Video".
Lucent are claiming that Microsoft have breached the conditions of the patent, saying, "Microsoft has infringed this patent by releasing the Xbox 360 console, which has MPEG2 technology."
Lucent are now demanding that all Xbox 360s are pulled from the market. It's a bizarre threat that they hope will lead Microsoft to back down in their upcoming court case.
