        Its so funny that everyone is splurging out if Samsung makes this or Toshiba makes that why can't they just build their own devices. Well that's just it, they can't. They never designed it. The masterful thoughts behind all of it is the true designer themselves. In this case is Apple. Although these companies makes the components doesn't mean squat on what they can do because they have never thought of it in the first place. You can line up thousands of your armies in a battle but with out a commander in charge on blueprinting out how to win.....well, let just say it would end up being a massacre.

Inventing is akin to coming out with something that entirely has not existed yet, like the light bulb. Apple designs, tries to innovate. Apple did not "invent" any of the components. Clear?

            so i guess apple fanboys has no more reason to bash samsung.
            apple wants to be the best and apple will use everthing that they think is the best. so it's safe to say that apple sees samsung as the best...'coz if not...then they might have gone to a different manufacturer at all..there are hundreds out there.

                    The Ipad 3 screen is Sharp's technology, manufactured by Samsung, and contracted out by Apple.

                                  Well it all boils down to one thing. Apple is bragging about an LCD panel that surpasses their biggest rival... Samsung. Which is evidently the same company that manufactured their LCD panel. Now that is revealed, it like Apple is shouting out loud, Hurrah for SAMSUNG!!!

I like Samsung, but there products are not apple products ... They just accommodate for some of the sweat labour along with other manufacturers . Apple market and designs it's Os as well which is distinct to what other parties offer.
