Schmidt believes HTC will prevail and is "not too worried about this" case. He also added that Google will "make sure" HTC does not lose this case."</em></p><p><img height="219" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/wpt/auto/1282771006.usr105634.jpg" style="margin-left: 90px; margin-right: 90px;" width="419" /></p><p>Wonder how they can make sure that HTC does not lose the case other than bribing those involved, or is that what he has planned? Jokes aside, I don't think anything is a sure thing, so I find it humorous when anyone makes bold statements such as this one. The most ridiculous statement though, was when he accused Apple of using lawsuits in place of innovation in order to compete. Keep it classy Eric.</p>
