Apple in $100M Patent Settlement
Apple will pay rival technology firm Creative Technology $100m (£52m) in an out of court settlement which will end litigation over a patent dispute.More here.
The two companies traded lawsuits after Creative accused Apple of infringing its patents in its iPod music player.
Creative launched its own digital music players in 2000 but they have been largely eclipsed by Apple's iPod.
Regulators launched a probe into the dispute, revolving around a navigation menu designed by Creative, in June.
