Apple Motorola Patent Dispute

Despite the Federal Court's dismissal of the patent lawsuit between Apple and Motorola Mobility, " the International Trade Commission plans to review its own related ruling that the Mac, iPhone and iPad maker is infringing on a Motorola-owned Wi-Fi patent. ... With the ITC revisiting its own ruling, Motorola may find that it has lost yet another potential tool in its fight against Apple."  Does Apple owe any license fees for use of patents; are Motorola's claims untrue?   As technology continues to grow, we are seeing more and more of these types of claims.  And by the time they get settled, there is more chance that the technology has been replaced by something newer and different.
