It's Zod from Superman II.

I'm not denying that Apple creating a proprietary dock wasn't to make a profit AT ALL, but there are clear advantages to using the 30-pin over USB. Just read the Cult of Mac article linked:

As opposed to your cutting-edge Samsung/HTC/Motorola/LG Android handset? With a slightly bigger screen? Two kickstands? Where have Android phone manufacturers tried to innovate?

This is not just about speakers. The 30-pin allows people to use iDevices in ways they cannot use other products without one (think about medical scanners and Apple's own retail store checkout system).

Right, but you can't say that Apple was inspired by the LG Prada phone, because a similar device was in development by them before it was unveiled to the public.

"Over-litigating?" I think they're litigating just the right amount. Apple filed patents, and they feel that Samsung infringed on those patents.

Did you not read the very article you posted?

How's that working out for GRiD?

The Galaxy S, for starters. Here you go:

Obvious troll is obvious.

I'm in this boat too. I think a 3.5" screen is just PERFECT.

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:
