Microsoft and TomTom kiss and make up

pocketgpsworld.comMicrosoft and TomTom have settled their patent infringement claims against each other.

Reported here and here, Microsoft initially sued TomTom for infringement of three file management and five car navigation patents. TomTom retaliated with a counter claim against Microsoft for infringement of four of their patents.

Microsoft announced this morning (see here) that it has settled its cases in an agreement in which TomTom will pay Microsoft for the use of the eight patents and in return Microsoft will be permitted to make use the four TomTom patents in a five year licensing deal.
