Is just not good, for example Nokia didn't make any single device looking like iPhones....

Why Samsung don't do that??? A New design, disctintive, something totally different that make Apple don't react on...Hey!! You are using my design I will Sue you!!

:P

For now Samsung is getting very hard hits in laws and maybe they will finish paying "loyalties" Taxes to Apple....Duh!!

      All I can say is the Galaxy Tab 10.1 must be one hell of a machine for Apple to take these ex stream measures. Although not desperate to own a Tablet device as yet I was considering an iPAD2 but with this kind of publicity I now will wait until the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is available again so I can compare apples with apples sort of speak. By the sounds of it Apple are scared of competitors so perhaps the Galaxy Tab 10.1 with the Galaxy SII is the better solution.

          when you say samsung should do a total redesign of their products, should their mobiles now come in round shapes? which phones do? apple is just sick. I hope governments/authorities can rise up and condemn this frivolous suits by apple. the market should be allowed options to choose from. well I hope samsung will hurry up as a result of these suits and launch their new tabs quickly in African markets, especially nigeria. tonnes of buyers are waiting.

            In the end both parties will come to a agreement on patent in these case.
            Apple needs samsung for their ipads screen after LG screen have been a failure.

              Apple has their priviledges about this, was the first and first allways hits twice.

              And they are in all their rights in do wathever for defend their technology and patents.

              I was saying this before...Patents are everything in this era, if Samsung can't understand this they will pay in too many countries around...or they need to makeover all their stuff to evade this.

              Why Samsung don't do a total redesign of their gadgets....?

                  AnonD-9023, 10 Aug 2011OK what u said is true but thats the same thing i said too ... more"Can samsung galaxy S have same resale value of iphone 4 ? or atleast 3/4th resale value of iphone 4 ? NO NO NO

                  simple answer . isn't it ? because apple logo is always like a "candy-piece" . if someone has iPhone and other people turn into "trolls" and just use 2 words "open-source" or "flash" because of some Mentally-unsatisfied but still after all this trolling also , the resale value of iphone 4 is more (even iphone 3gs resale value vs any other competitive smartphone released in 2009)"

                  *cough*

                  This might be true, what you say, but you also miss the point, that iPhone is by far the most expensive phone. If you talk about %loss, the iPhone has probalby even more loss, than other devices. If you talk about the pure money you get after selling it, your right, but noone buys a Galaxy S for iPhone4 price (but if iPhone4 would cost as much as Galaxy S, I would get the Galaxy S [my opinion])

                      Yeah! Apple should just let everyone copy them instead of bitching and taking the copyists to court. They should make iOS open source and lwt the other OEMs use and modify their OS.

                      /sarcasm

                      Samsung got what they deserved. Go Apple! Teach this Korean copyist some lesson in intellectual property and sue them for using multitouch! Make Samsung pay HUGE royalties.

                        It seems apple cant stand these smart korean so they try stopping samsung's increasing market share.I think these decisions made by courts are political and if the case had been vice versa they wouldn't have done like this.

                          Apple seems to be afraid of loosing Market Share. It seems that they prefer a monopoly.

Nigeria is a big destination market, Samsung make ur prize okay and come and out play ur competitors from Nigeria.

                                This is what Apple has been doing instead of making iPhone 5.

                                Apple bought themselves some time for making iPhone 5 now that they don't have to rush it.

                                  by the way the frame and shape of iphone 4 is not innovative look ate this...even the white and black thing that they comes up with

                                  that was on 2006

                                    The decision excludes the Netherlands because Apple started other cases with a wider coverage (including the Galaxy S series phones) against Samsung in the Netherlands nearly simultaneously.

                                      competion fosters innovation, and apple should allow room for this. good products sell themselves and shoddy onse dont move out of the shelves. let both companies put their products on the shelves and the best will sell. the courts will not make the loosing product to be bought.
