Apple’s Bounce Back Patent is on Shaky Ground

You know that bounce back patent that Apple has? Well the USPTO has been checking it out to see if it should be patented or not. Here’s their Final Office Action:

This Final Office Action by the USPTO is relevant because it finally rejects multiple claims of the ‘381 patent …

This final rejection includes claim 19, which is the only claim of the ‘381 patent at issue in this action. The jury found at trial that 21 accused Samsung products infringed claim 19 of the ‘381 patent.

Quickoffice For Google Apps For Business Launches

Best thing about it? It’s free on the Play Store. Google had acquired Quickoffice last year, and we’ve all been waiting to see what Google would do with it. Well today they’ve launched it for Google Apps for Business. Grab it on the Play Store now.

Pandora Gets Updated

Today, Pandora saw a nice update for Android. It brought lock screen controls, so you can now play, pause, skip and more straight from your lock screen without having to unlock. A pretty neat and cool update if you ask me. You can grab it on the Play Store now.
