Being able to patent something like "the top shouldn't be equal to the bottom, and only we can do that" is ridiculous. The patent system is a mess.
If you aren't going to actually learn and understand design patents then of course you are going to think it is ridiculous.
wow, kudos to Samsung design team -- they had really think this one through to comply with all the rules AND come up with a good looking product. Whats really is interesting here is that I read somewhere that each single iPhone is made of up to 60% Samsung components, solutions, patents, etc. How come then APPL is so bold with all those lawsuits? I know its a lot of money, but at some point Samsung could simply say "…
You don't just say "no more" to your biggest customer who is prepaying billions of dollars which you can then use to invest in new technologies. The same technologies which you can use across your product lines not just smartphones.
Honestly. The hardware is fine. The problem with android is still the software and only the software. I'll take my handset in pink polka dots if it can finally scroll smoothly everywhere and not constantly annoy me with bugs in almost every single basic feature. Instead they keep on shoving out bigger screens, faster CPU's every year - and the only UX issue ever being addressed is the camera finally snapping pics in…
The community design is an "and", not an "or". The Galaxy Tab model which had issues with this in Germany, if you look at it, has all , not just one, of those characteristics. The "Apple thinks it owns the rectangle" meme is nice, but untrue. Nilay Patel, in the Verge article linked by Android Community: Now, some of these are a little ridiculous when taken individually — is Apple going to sue every digital photo fra…
but in the end, the main question for the court will be whether or not Samsung has used all of these elements in a way that's likely to confuse consumers about what they're buying. How can consumers be confused about what they're buying? Even if their software appears similar, one device has a large Apple logo on the back and is sold almost entirely through a different retail chain.

Also outside of the US (and pretty sure in the US as well) the same retail chains will sell all types of tablets including iPads.

Performance / UI fluidity issues - that hasn't been true since long time now, especially so since ICS. Only hardcore apple enthusiasts and the ignorant keep repeating that (and Windows viruses) ;)
My nexus one with animations disabled is sluggish. Mainly dragging maps is embarrassing.
on the other hand, the 3gs of the time is also laggy. And it's not even on ios4

Which are still low numbers. My nexus one with animations disabled is sluggish. Mainly dragging maps is embarrassing. on the other hand, the 3gs of the time is also laggy. And it's not even on ios4
