I sure glad Apple had nothing to do with the invention of the motor car otherwize we would still be buying 1940s tech iCars as Ford and GM would have been sued out of existence....

I think Apple should start paying to Palm OS, Windows Mobile & etc older mobile OS too since there are so many similar features copied in the iOS.

I'm starting to disgust Apple. They're getting more and more annoying with their "pattern". Where is healthy competition? Seriously.

Love how Apple is supposed to be this big copycat who never did anything themselves, yet just a simple cursory glance and you can see a whole slew of unique designs, take a look at any of the Asian companies and you won't see half as many innovations (except Sony who are also wonderful at design).
I have been using both Apple and PC products since 1985, you Android babies dissing Apple havent a clue about innovation. Apple is not perfect, and I'm not going to waste my time defending it, but they have certainly brought some amazingly exciting products to the market, enough to earn them the title of innovative.

Sam, 30 Dec 2011The article title is not written correctly.
It should read... moreApple shouldn't get anything. The truth is that apple hadn't done anything themselves. All of that what they call their own is made by others and they are taking credit for all of it.
Oh, I remember when I read that a Mac has "software and hardware both made by the same company", written by Apple, and it IS NOT TRUE. What's Intel? Oh no! It's not Apple!

The article title is not written correctly.
It should read:
"Apple should be getting...."
The way it is written implies that Apple is betting billions right now from licensing. It isn't...and it won't in the future.

Long before the iphone was even launched. Unfortunately Neonode did not patent it. Apple did because Neonode went out of business. Apple have patented so much that is the work of other people and companies. They will fall hard real soon. As they say,the wheel turns
