Seeing how Apple just bought Nortel patent portfollio for 4.5 billion$ it's not that expensive of a deal for Google..


1) Google bid 4billion for nortel.

2) Apple only did that with a large group of other massive corporations; MS, Apple, Sony, RIM, and others all joined that buyers group to keep it out of Google's hands.

3) It was only for patents... Google acquired all of Motorola Mobility with its patents (more than Nortel's) as well as all its manufacturing, employees, product lines, etc.

thats not true at all.  google was asked to join in on the group as well and refused to do that.  because they are greedy bastards and wanted patents all to themselves that they could use against other people.
