After reading this article, it seems that the patent war between Nokia and HTC isn't working out for Nokia. Nokia has dropped 2 out of 9 patent in-suits and has dropped several claims. It does not seem to be working out for Nokia and they seem to be failing in winning these litigations against HTC.
I agree with the author that there will definitely be some sort of out of court settlement between the two companies over the different arguments. Let's see what happens!
It seems that until the high costs of litigation decrease, hefty settlements will continue to occur between these smartphone companies and sometimes even NPEs/patent trolls.
