As mobile computing gets pervasive, companies are vying to stay at the top of the top of increasingly competitive mobile market. Recently Microsoft sued Motorola over its line of Android-based smart phones. The popularity of Android software is also at the heart of a legal battle between Oracle and Google.

Guardian published an interesting chart around who is suing who in mobile business.



A long battle looms before it is clear which companies would be the winners. However one thing is clear ultimately it is the attorneys who would make quick bucks on this !!!
