As much as this infuriates me since I own a Nexus One (and previously owned a Behold II), I don't think anything will happen in the end. Apple couldn't beat Microsoft, it's doubtful they can overcome Nokia or Palm with their lawsuits against Apple, and in the end, really who cares? Apple is raising a stink for PR. Trying to make themselves look like the victim when they themselves did the same thing to other companies. The entire patent system is flawed and companies like Apple prey on it for their benefit rather than actually doing what the patent system was supposed to do. Everyone is mad about this issue (including me), but really, are they going to come take the phones you bought away from you? Even if in the future there's no support, Apple can't undo what has already been done.
