Intellect Wireless Inc. has sued T-Mobile USA Inc., U.S. Cellular Corp., Virgin Mobile USA Inc. and Helio Inc. in federal court in Chicago, accusing the companies of infringing wireless image messaging patents.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.
Intellect Wireless, a Texas company with offices in Fort Worth and Reston, Va., said in the 8-page filing that it holds rights and standing to sue for violation of a patent entitled “Picture Phone with Caller ID” and for two separate patents called “Method and Apparatus for Improved Paging Receiver and System.” All three patents were issued in 2007.
The suit said Daniel Henderson, the founder of Intellect Wireless, is the sole inventor of the patents at issue. Overall, according to the suit, Henderson has 25 U.S. patents and several pending related to picture/video messaging in wireless devices such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants and portable computers.
