Gizchina News of the week
ZTE are in legal hot water over possible patent infringements and have been sued by Novatel, a broadband provider in the United States.
Novatel claim that ZTE’s technology steps on there intellectual property regarding MIFI design, the same equipment the 3G Apple Peel uses!
