I invented answering a call on a hands-free by pressing a button, says Jari Lahtinen (reports Engadget). Which means I'm going to sue Nokia for doing something so obvious, only I would register it with the Finnish patent office... Sometimes I despair of the human race.

Might sound funny, but that is just what many big companies do, registering patents on simple things. It seems to me that Nokia missed the opportunity to register the patent and now they are trying to deny the patent. Obviously the patent is more complex but it is so "funny" to read these tabloid style news.
And I so wish that All About Symbian supported the </irony> tag...
