I can only name one immediately: the notification bar. I think Google still has a "patent pending" on that, so we'll see. Do you have more examples?

We're getting a lot of people commenting on this that don't know how design or patent law works.

You're right, I don't follow the automobile industry. Are these designs patented?

Since you're failing to understand what this lawsuit is about, let me help you out:

This.

That's not the issue here. Here's a concept for Samsung: stop copying Apple and iOS. You don't see Apple having a problem with Nokia and Microsoft's Metro interface for Windows 8 Phone.

By itself, no. Adding up everything, it's damning.

Your analogy is terrible. A better one would be if Toyota changed the Corolla's design to look similar to the Ford Focus. Do you think Ford would have a case then?

They didn't end up copying Sony though.

That's what I was thinking too.

Don't forget: Android phones are graded on a curve!

I kinda think that the iPod Touch is going to be discontinued/replaced with the iPad mini. Who would want a Touch when you can get a mini-tablet at nearly the same price?

Because their phones are generally terrible.

I get where you're trying to go with this, but weather is quickly located in the Notification Center. Just unlock your phone and swipe down from the top.

"After all, it wouldn't be the first time that someone got their hands on an unreleased iPhone model..."

Nah, it happened to me too.

I came for the inevitable dick joke, and I did not leave unsatisfied.

I think the message here was not that the Surface is copying the iPad, but that the presentation style MS used is similar to Apple's two years ago.

I don't know if the "root" argument is necessarily fair. Some people just want that out-of-the-box experience. I'm sure iPhone reviews would be a lot different if they graded on the curve of "oh, just jailbreak it!"
