i would think BN will almost certainly settle and obtain a license...it looks like HTC is already a licensee. with the nook in a tough competitive position to the kindle, i doubt BN wants to divert too much energy to litigating

It's hard to imagine that Barnes & Noble has patents over which it can countersue, and there isn't just the HTC example but also Amazon.com, which already pays Microsoft royalties on the Kindle. That's obviously B&N's closest competitor.

HTC is an odd case since HTC also make Windows phones. In fact, I think they have the most Windows 7 phone models out right now. "Extracting" the license agreement from them was probably not that difficult
