Taipei. Taiwan’s leading smartphone maker, High Tech Computer Corp., on Wednesday denied infringing on iPhone patents held by Apple after the US technology giant filed a lawsuit in the United States.
“HTC is not only an innovator in mobile technology but also an owner of many patents. We take American and international patent rights protection seriously,” it said in a statement to the Taiwan Stock Exchange. HTC added that the suit was not expected to have any major impact on its operations in the short term.
Apple announced on Tuesday that it had filed the lawsuit against HTC, which makes handsets for a number of leading companies and is the manufacturer of the Nexus One smartphone unveiled by Google in January.
Apple accused HTC of infringing 20 Apple patents related to the “user interface, underlying architecture and hardware” of the iPhone. “We can sit by and watch competitors steal our patented inventions, or we can do something about it,” Apple chief executive Steve Jobs said.
“We’ve decided to do something about it. We think competition is healthy, but competitors should create their own original technology, not steal ours.”
Apple has sold more than 40 million iPhones.
