Why wouldn't it affect the DROID? If Apple wins this, Android will have to be redesigned from the ground up. Some of the patents they are claiming were violated are swiping to unlock the phone and warm sleep when you put the phone to your ear, just to name a couple. Wonder if Google will get involved to protect Android?
Funny how after net rumors of 2.1 hitting the HTC phones started, this lawsuit was filed. Wonder how long its been sitting and waiting for the "prime opportunity"
Apple is just pi$$ed that folks have a choice now (of phones AND carriers).
