Creative Sues Apple Over the iPod

Creative says that the iPod’s graphical user interface is proprietary technology to its Zen MP3 products and that it owns the method in which users browse a portable MP3 device for music. Creative also says that its engineers invented the interface way back in 2000. While Creative says that it has the rights to the user interface for number of years now, the lawsuit refers to this patent here, which is actually dated last year.

One lawsuit for Apple down, and another rises up just as quickly. Why Creative waited five years to bring this up is anybodies guess. Check out the full post at DailyTech.
