Bleh I can't stay away from this thread. It's not a legal issue that's the delay - if it was the Milestone would not have it. Patents are INTERNATIONAL. (don't make me go into detail) Also they said the update was rolling out soon as they would not have said that if it wasn't a technical issue rather than a legal issue.

While some patents are international (I'll disagree with the ALL part), the laws governing them and what is determined to be infringing upon them is different from country to country.
That said, I agree, its not a legal issue. I find it funny that it keeps coming up.
It keeps coming up, because in the absence of hard information, there is only speculation.
