Apple licenses Swiss Railways' copyrighted clock design after being accused of stealing it

Apple licenses Swiss Railways' copyrighted clock design after being accused of stealing it

. Apple (AAPL) has made it a case to point fingers and sue Samsung (005930) for copying its patented product designs, but when it uses another company's copyrighted and trademarked designs without consent, the end result is probably going to be a licensing agreement. Such is the case with Apple's usage of the Swiss Federal Railways' (SBB) iconic clock design in iOS 6.
Apple was accused last month of blatantly stealing the clock design without SBB's permission but according to SBB, Apple has now agreed to license the clock design for future use.
