  Microsoft clocks up 500 patents in two months
Time: 00:25 EST/05:25 GMT | News Source: ZDNet Australia | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

In the last two months Microsoft has filed 500 patents with the US Patent and Trademark Office.

Microsoft's patent push has been stimulated by a number of factors including competition and trying to make sure Microsoft's rivals don't get access to key innovations.

However, the company also begun a broad intellectual property licensing push several years ago, under which it licenses technology to many companies big and small. The company has signed a slew of patent cross licensing deals since then, the most recent being Tuesday's deal with Japan's JVC.
