Apple got laughed at in the UK, sadly not so much here.

The fact that someone in the patent office let apple patent a "tablet" shaped object is ridiculous. How bout when xerox lost to apple for its one button mouse?

Makes me despise Apple even more. The electronic industry should be like the car industry. Better your competitors technology. Competition makes things better.

It's just another example of how lawyers and judges are making the world a better place <sarcasm>

Yeah it definitely sucks but this is only the beginning. There will be a lot of these trials between these two, if not more.

Apple pisses me off.....Didn't Steve Jobs himself steal the mouse idea from Xerox?

Yes, but Bill Gates stole the idea of a GUI from Jobs.

These are great. My Brother and I were comparing my Droid X and his Iphone 4 the other day. I brought up the multitasking thing to him and he said Apple addressed that in their latest update. Then I watched it do what almost no male on this earth can do - multitask.

Love the picture with the rock and Ipad.

Had a guy come up today to buy a phone and got the GS3 so I asked him why he wanted that one. He said "I was going to go with the 4S but after that lawsuit I changed to Samsung, I'll never use Apple after that."

It's just another example of how whiny overpaid CEOs and uncaring or possibly bribed/persuaded judges are making the world a better place <sarcasm>
Oy! I'm not taking this too seriously, but don't forget people wrongly accused who need defense attorneys or rape victims needing a prosecutor. Judges are just as important. So I fixed it for you :)

They both stole it from UNIX.
I thought UNIX, like Linux, was open source and therefore couldn't be stolen.
