      What i am observing about apple's development is how to block other competitors, not on R&D on new devices. If they continue on this banning policy and show ppl same devices year after year the dominance will soon fall....

        But what you've said is possible, but in your day dream, kiddo. They have the market share higher than Mercedes, BMW, lol, I'd like to know what you're taking.
        Anyway, I love what Apple did.

          Seriously, I am not sure Apple should have been given the 'Slide To Unlock' patent...It is stupid...

          And Google Voice has existed long before Siri, and how come Apple is patent-trolling Google for a search patent?

          Also, touch-to-replace is just a modified version of right-click-for-spelling-suggestions we use every other day in Microsoft Office and other editors...

          Tech giants will be better off if they spend time and money on innovation rather than during the crap out of each other at every turn, IMHO.

          Besides, it is not like Apple has not ccopied anything from Android... take a look at the Notification Center, the threaded view, Direct-to-camera-from-lockscreen, Google Wallet, Maps etc.,

          Moreover,the first few versions of iOS were actually revolutionary, other than that, Apple's software is one stagnant set of UI and core features... there has been no true innovation on Apple's part in several generations.

          Not saying Apple is completely wrong, but to sue companies on such minor details is a waste of resources, which, they might have more than they want.
          Apple, just spend your valuable 'resources' with something more productive...

            Is that all Apple got? Please be competitive in the market, not in the court.

                AnonD-52738, 30 Jun 2012Apple lost the battle, and not man enough to fight back. ... moreI agree with you. I genuinely hate that company and will never support them ever again (bought an iPod touch 2G a few years ago.)

                They're just a bunch of underhanded, dirty and greedy corporate that want to get monopoly of the market. They're not the type to start competition, they're the type that bring down their opponent so they get none.

                      The big winners are the lawyers as always and since this is USA concern why should rest of world bother..Well we have to bother becsuse apple is holding up progress purley because it is so behind the competition and finds relief by suing.

                      Also outside the geek world no person on the street knows that this lawsuit is going on..If the normal person on the street was educated as to whats happening apple cool would shrink like hell.

                          i'm sorry but i can't be polite. i hate apple, i hate the people ruling it, i hate their pricing, their lawsuits. i really hope their market share drops further. anyway they will run out of ideas to sue other brands and judges will get tired of them.

                            That is Google's flagship phone... Google is either going to strike back, or loose reputation... I would love to see someone that will stop apple to do that...

                            "a device being able to search multiple sources through a single interface (Apple's Siri)"??? REALLY, come on, it's android, it's Nexus, it's pure google, and Google is a f***ing search engine, and Nexus as a flaship phone, is based on that...

LED displays are only used in over sized panels used in large public places where the screens have to be tens or more of metres across and at close range have a VERY low resolution and have never been used in high resolution hand held devices.
                                    As a photographer I choose super AMOLED because to my eyes it gives the most accurate colour reproduction,and because I will replace my phone when my two year contract is finished it doesn't bother me that it has a shorter lifespan than LCDs do.

                                      Pardon my french but Apple just plain sucks. If any representative of Apple is reading this; make better products and stop suing everyone. You really really suck big time. if a consumer wants to buy a proper phone, aka a Nexus, rather than your boring IPhone, let them do it. Focus on better features and a better product to increase sales, rather than trying to decrease other company's sales. what a bunch of Tw*ts.

                                        These manufacturers can get away from infringing softwares patents from Apple if they went with Windows Phone 8 in the future. Apple and Microsoft don't sue each other.
