as far as i see it,,most of its arnet coping,,its called evolution,,all most all da touch screen phones got their influence by apple,,but those different companies have different kind of softwears, hardwares n features built in,dats what differ the products,,,certainly the samsung might got sum influence from apple,,,but dat doesn't mean dat apple hav da right to sue samsung for doing so,,dats what called the competition,,once apple come up with a good device, samsung try to cum up with a better one,when samsung cum up with a good device, apple try to cum up with a better one, dats what da customer expect...,what apple claim is,,dat da samsung products r more similer to their products which leads apple buyers to buy samsung devices thinking dat thos r apple stuff,,,,if u r dat much dumb to buy a galaxy tab thinking dat it is an ipad,,u arnt worthy enough to buy either one,,,,,apple is apple,,,samsung is samsung,,, they are totaly differnet and any one in the world can differentiate those 2 things....its solely dumb dat sum 1 step in to a samsung shop and buy a device thinking dat it is an apple device... :O ...not only samsung, lot of other companies hav some what similer design to the apple product.but they(apple) r only against samsung. dats only becoz, apple, has been thretend by the samsung to a great extend...apple just try to keep their market share by just going into a patent war, they dont try to come up with better devices dat can challenge samsung devices.......
as i think,,,,in this patent case,,,both parties should loose, i mean da, case should be dismissed, coz, no matter what party wins, @ da end of da day,,customer loose,,and dat should not happen.....
