Where would we be without our daily dose of Tech Crunch? :P

The article states that ARM, Broadcom, Intel, LG, Marvell, MediaTek, 
Nvidia, Panasonic, Philips, Qualcomm, RealTek, Samsung, Sigma, Sharp, 
Sony and Toshiba plan to roll out hardware support for VP9 in 2014.

This seems to cast doubt on the validity of Nokia's IPR claim, and the 
FUD that's been going around.
