InterVideo Is Suing Dell Over Files Patent Infringement Seeks Injunction and Damages Related to Patents	By Sci/Tech News Staff, - 16th of August 2005, 18:22 GMT Adjust text size:


InterVideo announced that its subsidiary, InterVideo Digital Technology Corporation, has filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Dell Inc. for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,765,788 ("the '788 Patent"), entitled "Method and apparatus for integrating personal computer and electronic device functions." InterVideo alleges that upon information and belief, Dell had full and prior knowledge of the '788 patent and therefore Dell's infringement has been and continues to be intentional and willful by importing, making, using, selling and/or offering for sale in the United States computer products, and components and peripherals thereof that embody the inventions of the '788 Patent. InterVideo has asked the California court to enjoin Dell from manufacture, sales, offers to sell, use and importation of products which infringe on the '788 Patent and to order Dell to account for and pay to InterVideo all damages, plus enhanced damages and attorney fees and costs. InterVideo Digital Technology Corporation earlier filed, in 2004, two patent infringement lawsuits against Acer, in the United States Federal Court for the Western District of Texas for infringement of the '788 patent, and in the Taiwan District Court of Taipei for infringement of various Taiwan patents relating to its InstantON technology. InterVideo has resolved those cases to its satisfaction.
