Motorola’s patents won’t help Android lawsuits, says Nokia

That was Paul Melin, Nokia’s Chief of Patent Licencing. The assumption that Nokia would have investigated Android as a potential OS partner (and eventually plumping for Windows Phone) means that Melin understands the Android patent issue in some depth, even if he can’t spell it out in black and white during an interview.

And so we return to the great question of August 2011. Why buy, Google, why?
