Gemstar sues Digeo
After having sued others over patents, Digeo has now been sued by Gemstar-TV Guide.
From Reuters: The lawsuit says Digeo's Moxi interactive program guide infringes Gemstar-TV Guide's interactive program guide patents. The suit also accused cable operator Charter Communications of deploying Moxi guides.
Gemstar said it filed the lawsuit on Friday after negotiations over a patent license for Digeo failed and the company filed an antitrust lawsuit against Gemstar.
