Microsoft extends embedded indemnification

InternetNews | at | by Mike

As the mobile and embedded industry continues to face various intellectual property and patent challenges, Microsoft is upping the indemnification ante it offers its partners.

Microsoft Embedded and Windows Mobile OEM partners and distributors will now enjoy the same level of protection that other Microsoft platform partners have benefited from.

Microsoft claims that the new protection is not being driven as a direct result of recent alleged patent-infringement suits that have been filed against Microsoft.
