Another day, another lawsuit. A Taiwanese man known only as Lee claims to hold a patent on a “voice network personal digital assistant” technology and has filed a lawsuit against Apple, alleging that his technology is used in FaceTime, reports “CNET.”

FaceTime is a video calling software application and related protocol. It runs on iOS and Macs running Mac OS X 10.6.6 and higher.

An initial hearing on the alleged patent violation is slated for September. Lee hasn’t specified any financial amount in damages but wants Apple to stop the patent violation, notes “CNET.” You can read more at http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57487986-37/apples-facetime-faces-patent-infringement-suit-in-china/?part=rss&subj=news&tag=title
