Korean Audio and BMW drivers can relax, LG v. Osram LED patent dispute settled

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/osram-lg-led-settled-11-02-12-01.jpg Though it seems like some patent disputes never go away, at least an [ongoing tiff](http://scribefire-next/the parties also have reached a license agreement for their respective LED patent portfolios) between LED makers LG and Osram has been settled amicably. Details were kept under wraps, other than a statement that “the parties have reached a license agreement for their respective patents” and that all the disputes worldwide were dismissed. That means that a threatened Korean ban of Audi and BMW vehicles using the LED tech won’t happen – but we doubt teutonic car-lovers there were terribly worried about that unlikely-seeming proposition.
