                  Some of the victories Apple scored against Samsung in truth Google should have been the defendant and NOT Samsung, and that is well known, Google CEO have in the past stated this

                  If Samsung has to get back into bed with Apple again I only hope Samsung at least had "hiked" the price to recover the amounts if not all that Apple undeserving court victories won.

                                The real boss is always the person signing the checks, in this case it's Apple. Samsung needs the money it get from making chips for Apple. In case you haven't noticed they are losing money in their mobile division.

And screw Apple, like Apple have screwed Samsung over the years. Come on Sammy use your brains. Apple are making mugs of you.
