Kodak has filed a lawsuit this Tuesday in U.S. District Court in New York, thinking that Apple is stealing its technology!
Apple is said to use Kodak's technology of sending pictures without paying for it, while other companies (LG, Motorola, Samsung and Nokia) have the same technology but are actually paying for it!
As reported by Reuters:
According to the lawsuit, "Kodak engineers recognized that it would be desirable for users to easily share images with friends or relatives directly from their digital cameras instead of first transferring the pictures to their personal computers," and patented technology that would let people do that.
Kodak doesn't want to end its technology for the iDevices but they are looking for a "fair compensation".
Moreover, Laura G. Quatela, Kodak's president and COO added:
"The failure of companies to appropriately compensate Kodak for the unauthorized use of our patented technology impedes our ability to continue to innovate and introduce new patents."
Kodak tried to solve this problem but they didn't reach a "satisfactory agreement"...
