Nope, keep selling. This patent system is no longer functioning correctly and is therefore void. Why do we choose to live under something that doesn't exist?

No problem. I'll fight the man, and you keep... voting? Have fun letting everyone else tell you how to live your life, but you might like that sort of thing, I don't know.

Boycott. Not just the costumers boycotting Apple. Samsung and other companies should just boycott the legal system. Summoned to court? Don't show up. Judged to pay $1bil? Don't pay it. Simple as that. What is the US government going to do? Roll out the tanks? Declare Marshall law? I'm fine with that, the

Umm, I don't know if YOU are trolling, but this is pretty self explanatory. They just won over a billion dollars. Now that want almost another billion dollars, and, heres the kicker, the right to ban Samsung from pretty much existing (yes, genius, in this metaphor I'm using "existing" to mean Samsung's ability to

Apple

Yep, just like how when a water main breaks out in the public street and leaks 5% of the water coming to my house, I should pay for it. Sounds fair to me.

WOW!

Baaah! Sorry, thats the only word I know in your language.

Mirroring what the others have said, it IS Apple's fault, not verizon or sprint. Many Android devices chose to enable this feature by supplying the necessary hardware. Apple chose not to supply to hardware. It is Apple's fault.

Correct. That website is wrong. The tweet it is basing its thesis on says nothing of iPhone, only "4G devices" which the author takes to include the iPhone5. But it does not, despite the fact that the tweet is correct in that many Android 4G devices allow simultaneous voice/data.

Yay, facetime over cell network. That'll do wonders with the data cap. Say hello to thousand dollar balances... err, I mean, your family and friends!

YEP! THIS is the only reason. Why give consumers something good, when you can give them something less good/shitty and charge the same price and sell the same amount. Couldn't have said it better myself. Apple isn't the richest company in the world right now for no reason, they know how to do business.

I know, I was being snarky. What I mostly don't understand is how these vague patents ever got approved, nevermind how the courts keep entertaining these cases.

Yea, I'm not understanding the "slide to unlock" patent. I just read it (literally, on the uspto website) and its so shitty. Theres a lot of claims but they pretty much all boil down to "moving a finger along a screen to unlock". The patent literally states that it covers all conceivable ways of doing it. If you

So, if I'm understanding this correctly, if you have hardware that runs software, Apple invented it?

Unfair advantage for its own product? Do you even read what you write?

No no, sillyhead, they invented Space itself.

Let me summarize what you've just said "...Apple...Kinda sucks..."

You've answered your own question. You can watch amazon movies from pretty much anything that has internet and a screen. Nevermind the overwhelmingly more important issue of codec/video quality, which Apple seems to always be behind in. I giggle anytime someone buys something from iTunes, just dumb.

This was SUCH a better ad model than what we have now. I just recently rewatched Cool Runnings and thought this same thing when, during a scene, all the characters are celebrating their win by toasting with CocaCola. SO simple, so unobtrusive, and so natural that I actually enjoyed seeing the bottles of Coke in the
