Seems apple is driven hard these days about their intellectual property. After psystar suing them to defend their open Mac clones, now a
Taiwanese company who produces iPod shuffle clones, strikes back on Apples' claims and sued them on business damage they received from Apple forcing various importers, even through partner, to stop importing the player to Europe.
This upcoming lawsuit goes back to a threat from 2007, where the company told they wanted to fine Apple for about 100$ Million of damage received from their shady business tactics, which is clearly aimed to push them off the market.
