Well don’t worry, I’m sure Samsung will be happy to paint a little "house" on their home buttons in future so Apple can stop crying and take their nap. this is getting nearly as ridiculous as the real fight between the parties that are actually involved; Last post on this topic from me thanks.

so you have an Xperia; big woop; I just love how whenever people run out of arguments in fights light these it always resorts to "you must be a fanboy" or "glad your aren’t a fanboy" or something to that effect. The point is; yes Samsung phones are black and rectangular, yes some of them have a center home button, no…

Um, the phone in the image above is an HTC Droid Incredible...the home button on that phone is more "iPhoney" than any Samsung phone, Just saying...and the phone in the article image is a prototype with no face buttons that was being designed prior to 07. The one Samsung phone that you showed did have a home button,…

Well your comment was well informed and concise, and even though the information contained therein is correct, you lost all credibility with your last sentence; you are what are wrong with the Internet.

I know right, then I could put my sisters old 80's syle banana hair clip over my eyes and pretend I'm a young levar burton!

Ha, but I"m not the one that said they were similar, I was just giving name to the OS on ST; thats all.

Um, if you think this case is insignificant than your an internet idiot; the implications of this case are mindboggling. If apple wins then they are well on their way to becoming a monopoly that makes the Microsoft of the 90’s look like a corner lemonade stand.

It would but Apple is one of the largest exporter of Jobs there is, ever heard of Foxconn?

Um, I repair phones and computers; people have them repaired all the time and it often takes a bit of convincing when I think it actually is best to replace something. People don’t want to have to buy all new when something breaks and why the hell should they have too?

These companies would not even be in court if apple didn't think it invented the rectangle (obvious over simplification, feel free mock me on it)

Um, there were rectangular windows tablets out (as in, on the market) LONG before the first iPad prototype was more than a twinkle in Jobs eyes.

That is the problem, at this point she has created, at the very least grounds for an appeal; at most grounds for a mistrial. So now we are going to waste the next 3 weeks with this "rehearsal" and then when Samsung/apple appeals the decision we will do this dance again.

its called LCARS; dont know why I wanted to share but I did.

The period of time you’re talking about is called discovery, however evidence can be submitted at any point during a trial; it’s up to the judge to rule if its admissible. Generally new evidence is only deemed inadmissible if the way in which it was procured is questionable. It’s a common belief (not saying it’s…

No, assemble was not, but restaurants also don’t sell raw meat or vegetables do they? Just like Apple doesn't sell a logic board and call it an iPhone, the assembly was implied.

Your response is actually rather asinine. Restaurants may not grow the products but they at least cook the food, apple doesn't even assemble the parts once their made. And that is the point that is being made above.

Not wrong, but you can’t imagine that given the current climate either Apple or Samsung have any desire to continue to do business together. Apple has just moved on to a company that their not yet suing.
