Androidome:I'm sure you all aware about the "Apple vs Samsung" trial, but I'm pretty sure that you don't know the fact that Samsung gather some vital evidence for the Court. It seems that Samsung managed to prove the Court that the company hasn't copied iPhone's patterns.
this is what happens when nothing you create is original and instead build on others ideas. every bit of iphone tech was out before the iphone came to life.
and if apple is complaining about the UI, well then they suing the wrong person. UI has nothing to do with samsung. it has to do with google. but ofcoz, Apple wont go after google out of pure fear they will get their asses handed to them.
i hope samsung crushes Apple.
and then i hope microsoft, HTC, Nokia, Moto, Google...etc all pile on Apple and put them in their place for good.
And who would make things usuable and easier accesible for us ? Would you still like to work with the MS tablet PC or with a 'after'-iPad tablet ? Compare the phones Samsung had before the iPhone and what they have now... giant leaps suddenly !
Because when patent hoarders strike, it's often the fresh new ideas that take the blow.
