Of course they are. They see the Pre coming out and several former Apple employees worked on it. They know it'll be a huge player and they're trying to stop it. If this really does hold up in court its not going to stop other devices from using it, everyone else will just have to license the technology from them. Palm has a lot of technology used in the Pre patented that Apple uses on the iPhone. There are articles saying that if they both went to court on the matter there would be years of litigation and they'd both most likely just license the technology from each other.
