, The Finnish company filed an amicus brief in Apple vs. Samsung appellate case. (via )

Nokia is the only company to support Apple's case, filing the brief after getting a 14-day extension to submit beyond the February 19 deadline. The brief itself is currently under seal, but Nokia offered a summary as well. In this, Nokia attorney Keith Broyles argued that Apple should be allowed to ban Samsung phones from the market and that, according to Reuters, Judge Koh “erred by ruling that Apple must establish a 'causal nexus' between its patented feature and the demand for its phones in order to secure a permanent injunction.”

Nokia then warned that failure to issue an injunction "could cause wide-ranging damage to the United States patent protection landscape.”

Nokia is grasping for straws and are probably hoping Apple will throw them something. Windows has been such a huge success for Nokia... lol.

Probably because Nokia sees Samsung in specific or Android as a whole as a bigger threat to them than iOS (makes sense, so I see their reasoning).
