Apple wins injunction against Motorola products in Germany
Apple won an injunction against Motorola Mobility over infringement of Apple's "rubber band" patent, Dow Jones reports. The ruling bans the sale of Motorola products in Germany that infringe the patent. The Munich court didn't specify how much Motorola will have to pay Apple in damages, or which products will be affected by the judgment. The patent concerns scrolling lists, translating, rotating and scaling electronic documents on touch-screen displays. It is known as the rubber band patent for the way the display springs back once a user has scrolled to the bottom of a document on a device like a smartphone.
