Last week, Apple’s Tim Cook mentioned that the Cuppertino based company likes competition, but not one that is ripping their intellectual property (IP) off. Although he didn’t mention exact company, many noted that he may point to Palm, as the WebOS has some fancy iPhone-like gestures. Palm doesn’t stay still, and its spokeperson, Lynn Fox said:

 Palm has a long history of innovation that is reflected in our products and robust patent portfolio (31 pages of patents in Google Patent Search), and we have long been recognized for our fundamental patents in the mobile space …. If faced with legal action, we are confident that we have the tools necessary to defend ourselves.

Obviously, Palm is sure abouts its features.
