and idea, as you have evidence of coming up with the idea first and they have blatently ripped you off you can sue and collect their winnings. Also I'd suggest going to the papers as you should get the recognition you so rightly deserve as well.

Nokia isn't going to award him the prize, he's not entitled to it as he didn't win - he didn't even enter, but if he can prove sbe stole the idea, she's obliged to give the prize to him.

There is no copyright on ideas. The copyright protects the work itself, not the idea behind it.
