Does Nokia have a case against Apple for its iPod Nano design?

Cross licensing deals, probably?

Yeah, probably.

You mean Apple patented the rectangular shape? My toast in in trouble then....

Ok, now you're just trolling.

iPod Nano 6th gen (2010)

Nokia Lumia 900 (2011)

Oh wow, I forgot that older Nano. Wonder if anybody made fun of Nokia for their design choice.

Perhaps the cross-licensing deal that Microsoft makes with Apple is where Nokia got the design choice in the first place?

Hello fellow /g/ unit.

Looks more like an iPod Mini with a larger/better screen and no click wheel(?) to me.

But then again...

It does look suspiciously familiar.... Maybe a lawsuit from a KIRF? This thing was released back in '08, if memory serves me correctly.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Apple has had that design style as a prototype for awhile.

Looks like the body of the iPod mini (just skinnier) and the elongated screen of last years nano to me but is funny none the less
