That's certainly possible. It may also just be related to their recent Linux-based "Internet Tablet", as reported earlier on LWN.

Note that if they do try to assert their patents and restrict others from distributing Linux (or other GPL'd apps that happen to be found on their system), they might lose the rights to distribute this system.
