And to top it off, they weren't exactly harassing. It was a mutual agreement between OEMs and Microsoft. Even the amount (per device sold) was negotiable, unlike Apple, bringing everyone to court. If these OEMs don't think Microsoft has the necessary patents, they can always refuse to pay, but in reality, Microsoft does hold a few key patents that Android infringes upon, in particular, patents related to FAT storage systems.

Oh, remember, one of the OEMs that does not have a mutual agreement for those patents is Motorola. Whatever it is, Google really does seem very hostile against Microsoft. I wonder why they don't just get along.
