Typhoon alleges that defendants have infringed and continue to infringe its US Patent No 5,379,057 issued January 3, 1995 and entitled "Portable Computer with Touch Screen and Computer System Employing Same," and US Patent No 5,675,362") issued October 7, 1997 and entitled "Portable Computer with Touch Screen and Computing System Employing Same," in a variety of portable computer products, including tablet PCs, slate PCs, handheld PCs, personal digital assistants, ultra mobile PCs and smart phones. Typhoon and Nova have already had some success in similar actions: they have previously reached an out-of-court settlement with Motion Computing and recently completed a settlement with Electrovaya under which Electrovaya recognised the validity of Typhoon's patents, acknowledged infringement of one or more of the patent claims and made an undisclosed royalty payment of at least 20 percent on past and future sales of its Scribbler Tablet PCs in the United States.
