In an interim order, the German court said, Apple may not sell certain mobile devices including iPad and iPhone in Germany that infringe on two Motorola Mobility patents related to wireless technology. The court also said that If Apple continues selling the devices then it has to pay a fine of up to 250,000 euros.
Internet search giant Google, which is also a major player in the mobile market through its Android operating system, is in the process to acquire Motorola Mobility.
