Apple gets sued

Two days ago a small company named mirror worlds tried to sure apple for US$625.5 million saying that apple infringed on some of their patents, related to the macs, iPhones, iPads, and iPods.

The technologies at issue include Cover Flow, which lets users flip through album covers and other content as if through a stack of cards; Time Machine, which performs automatic backups; and Spotlight, which is software for searching computer hard drives.
Apple was required to pay US$208.5 million for each patent violation.
