^ ^ ^ That's exactly how apple fanboys feel when presented with facts!

Lol. Some of those patents have already been invalidated by courts in other countries because they are laughable / prior art / not original. If Apple is so moralistic, original and does not believe in stealing, why it had to settle with Nokia with it's tail firmly between two legs when it sued apple? Compared to patents in Samsung lawsuit, patents by Nokia were actually valid/original without which apple could not have sold iPhone but it did so without bothering to pay Nokia for close to 2-3 years. It tried using them without any moral qualms untill Nokia sued and then settled out of court silently paying billions of dollars. (The actual amount was never disclosed.) If Apple is so concerned about values and aggrieved by others stealing their work, why no similar lawsuits launched yet against LG or Huawei or ZTE. They all use similar functions in Android. Point is Samsung dislodged apple in smartphone market share and is a real threat. Samsung sold double the quantity of smartphones in last quarter compared to apple. This is not much about any innovation/originality or copying. It's about trying to safeguard marketshare and thwart competition by abusing the legal and patent system which obviously has it's flaws. Will the strategy succeed? No chance. Majority of consumers don't buy smartphones after reading court verdicts. They buy a particular one which they think gives them the best mix of features/performance at a better value. Period. BTW one of the running theme in the trial was apple's arguement that customers bought Samsung phones thinking it's iPhone. Really? Apple credits iSheep smartphone users with such little intelligence where they can't even distinguish between two different phones! Unless apple again starts innovating & incorporates features like LTE, large screens, some other USP which the competition is offering since more than a year, this strategy of litigation is not going to work. With the rat like speed with which Samsung multiplies their models, apple could be chasing it for life without much success on the ground. By the time a device is possibly banned (That too only in US, rest of the world won't be affected) it's already run it's course and sold huge numbers. Apple is going to miss Steve Jobs more and more in the coming days.

lolzz..

The behaviour of R Venkateswarlu is exasperating. He should be warned for his misbehaving. Most of the buyers are not like him. And very few remain 'unsatisfied' after buying from a seller like Parin. I'm one of them, Parin will definitely agree, I know.

A new arrow will need to be added to this diagram from Oct 2010 This post from appleinsider claims the dates in the "LOL@Apple" graphic are wrong, and that Samsung unvieled the F700 a month after the iPhone.
