Well that is just plain dirty. Come up with mind blowing innovation instead of these tactics.

    Apple is very intimidated by Samsung. I've never seen a company so afraid of competition.

        Apple makes good products (for those who likes closed architecture), but I will never buy anything made by Apple for only one reason: Apple's disgusting behaviour in the phone market and its efforts to limit the choice for consumers.

            Samsung can just buy all sharp equipments and all its LCD manufacturing facilities, then no more screens for poor apple. That would turn it into Tomato!

                            Apple paid to make IGZO affordable so of course it doesn't want Samsung to have access to such power efficient and color-accurate displays.

                              I dont get why Apple is 'throwing its toys out the pram' on this one. Considering most of the components of iPhones come from Samsung anyway, i really dont see what all the fuss is about. This goes for all Apple vs Samsung cases

                                apple is so desperate to bring down samsung, what a shame. just make a patent for all types of screen so that you would win this game

                                      Isn't this like not allowed? Apple can keep the equipment and not sell it back to Sharp or let Sharp supply to whoever they want. By setting that condition, wouldn't it be anti-competitive?
