        Apple always tries to claim that they're the most original, one and only super company with everything. Fuck no. Also there are 100s of other products that look like they're copying Apple products, but Apple only gives shit to Samsung, cuz they're afraid of it.

          Honestly, I am glad this happened and I'm waiting for the same result for Australia (to lift apples pathetic ban on the galaxy tab here) as there is no way in hell I would ever consider buying a product as sh*t as the ipad or any apple product at all. they are over-priced paper-weights and not good for anything but showing the world you are a sheep, a follower and more concerned with your status symbol than what your device can actually do for you.

          Apple, this is disgustingly pathetic. Get your act together. If nobody is buying your products because they horrid quality then make something better, don't restrict your users to the over-priced apple product ecosystem you have set up. let your users have the freedom to use their devices the way that they see fit. Give the consumer something they want instead of throwing around lawsuits left right and centre because you are paying your lawyers more than your tech developers.

          Apple is pathetic and iOS is a horrible excuse for an operating system, I will be happy when apple goes bankrupt and Google holds the largest market share for the industry.

            im not suprised though. the court case is just a stint. SAMSUNG IS THE DEVELOPERS FOR APPLE, how could apple sue samsung?? they did this because it will eventually boost apple's brand so that apple will have a better position in the consumers mindset, and finally apple will be able to sell in a better premium. apple is definitely overpriced, just look at the profits they made. and i wonder is this an ethical issue lying to consumers...

              This puts me off buying an Apple, their products arent the greatest, software yeah its good but restricted. Steve Jobs NEEDS to realise that us consumers like to have choice and it isnt always going to Apple so he needs to lay off all other companies. I hope the iphone becomes a flop and in turn give someone else a go at leading the technology race!

                Anonymous, 16 Aug 2011i can only say that steve jobs has foreseen the doomsday ah... moreSteve's trying to monopolize the global market and he can't do that if Samsung is in the way. It's a desperate and sad marketing strategy really.

                  Points to the folly that it is to trust the legal system with one's business plan. Sanely managed companies avoid patent litigation because technical merit has very little impact upon the courts findings. One minus well be playing rock paper scissors as the outcome is completely random.

                    Google is starting it's transformation into Apple. Wonder if Samsung is worried about te special treatment Motorola will now get. In my opinion, a betting man would put his money with Motorola over Samsung.

Maybe that's why Google bought a hardware company and is now emulating Apple's closed wall system. Interesting that Android was found to be the least open OS amongst open source OS's no?

                      Nokia-Microsoft collaboration also points to closed wall system. Lol seems that everyone is joining Apple on the same road, yet some fans don't even realize it.

                              Samsung I had no doubt in my mind you would come off victorious in this particular case simply because Steve Jobsworth is really feeling the pressure right now & it shows cause all he's trying to do is sue everyone. How LOW Apple(& Steve Jobsworth) stooped into providing the courts with an inaccurate picture of the 10.1inch Tab just to try & give themselves some temporary popularity & put you in the shade. UNBELIEVABLE. I am a proud SGS2 owner & even prouder now I see the road Apple are heading down & from where I'm sat, it does not look good. To Mr Lee Don-joo & the whole Samsung Group, Well Done & keep up the good work. Today is a Good Day.

                                Folks from Apple really do the business using the dirtiest ways possible. Apple's Business ethics = big zero. Instead of letting the consumer to decide which cellphone to buy, they do everything that they can to take away the possibility of choice from the consumer, so that he has to be ''forced'', in some way, to buy Apple's products, because competitive products from other companies get banned from the particular market, making those products unavailable to the consumers.

                                  The original patent fight should go TO GOOGLE ANDROID but is can't and cannot as open source is free.
                                  And why Google buy Motorola Mobility. Is because of patent to prevent this barking dog to bark at thier partner for bone again.

                                    Samsung should stop their copycat culture. It may have been tolerated when they were catching up. Now that they have a reputation, it's time for some originality.
