Fact 1. The US patent law is stupid.
Fact 2. Korean companies turned big by reverse engineering American, European and Japanese (which actually are partly copied from the previous two) products, any decent strategic management course will teach you that. Someone had enough of this and also had the means to justify the claim.
Samsung is said to innovate faster than Google, which might be true but they always need a first little "push" from other companies.

From my point of view,
without apple iphone, Samsung dont have any clue how to design they galaxy s1,2,3
When Samsung take some idea from apple, apple ask them to pay for the idea (April 2010 i think), but samsung react with only one word, sue me
when apple really sue them, they sue back with something call patent in the 3g or wifi standard, samsung just like gangster blocking the road say, if u dont let me copy i will sue you and block u using the road.
samsung, a company have reputation on making cheap product that made all japanese out of business
who are not buying they tv,ref,washing machine not because they are cheaper then other brand.
Samsung also a company playing trick with legal, anyone remember, lcd price fixing, samsung made other company pay few billion on the wrong doing (and samsung is one of the largest master mind in Lcd price fixing)

This is the most stupidiest decision by jurors. Patents like these shouldn't be applied.

what a joke this whole thing is... these 2 companies must have wasted more than a billion dollars paying useless attorneys for what??? to prove who copied who??? what a waste of human resource when people are getting killed in war and dying of hunger on the other side of the planet!! One thing--, it's absolutely a joke that Apple's design patent on rectangle with round corners stand... and to think that Steve Jobs actually thought it as patentable and for the USPTO to accept such patent, then this group of jurors agree that it is a patent...Don't we all get inspiration from something else?? my bento box is rectangular with round corners~~

It seems a new Cold War, or a Cultural Revolution has begun. This time round it happened on the United States. With such immature, inexperience Jurors group which ignorance of thec true historical data, it was purely a dictation verdict to ruled out better & newer technology which it was never invented by United States company called Apple. Remebered, even Apple admitted themself, they used the word "Re-invent" on their product launch events.
With United States with "Hegemonism" approach, I wouldn't be suprise what they next stopping most of the Eastern countries products to sell in US. But don't forget, US still owe most of the Eastern countries lots of money... Maybe it's time for United States to pay back the debt in full amount.

AnonD-59079, 27 Aug 2012Oh gosh, those Samsung fanboy can't accept that the truth i... moreYou should actually realise that they can design a device with a 4.8" screen not 3.5" and still be lighter. Plasticy maybe? But that helps when it falls from instantly "breaking".
