Wow. All I can say is wow. How can people support a company like apple which tries to unfairly beat the competition by banning their products? They need to focus on making their products better instead of sticking with the same design for years and putting lawsuits on other companies.
Samsung won't stop manufacturing for Apple, why? Because it's a large conglomerate. Their manufacturing division is not the same as their consumer electronics division; the Samsung that designs phones purchases from the Samsung that manufactures them. They don't care who they are supplying to, it just has to make money.
With that said, the Samsung that develops phones notoriously mimick Apple hardware in one way or another, thus Apple's constant attention to halting their sales. Just look at how Samsung implemented S-Voice, it's a mere clone of Siri function albeit slower; Google instead goes and one-ups Apple's product rather than matching it. Different philosophies of business.

All this will do is push the Nexus sales through the roof before the ban hits, which will fill the lull until its thrown out like everything else and things will return to normal until they find the next thing to sue over.

I wonder if, one day, a judge will look at the docket and see "Apple" and just dismiss it because they are tired of listening to them. I mean really, there is only so many times that one can cry wolf before people just stop listening.

Well I just came back from one of the corporate stores here in my town. Funny thing is, most of the female employees were using Blackberry phones...and they weren't bad looking either
I would have thrown out the "Hey BBM me!" but...yea

all we have to do is consider the source....Huff post? come on, i wouldnt wipe my ass with that thing (too many stickies on my monitor)
we all know that the dumb ones are the easy ones right? so does this mean that all iphone users are stupid as well? (we all know that to be true anyway)
on the other hand if I werent happily married I would sure go trolling for iphones now.
So I guess this guy isn't after the "easy" ones http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7527391&postcount=1

no jealousy, just havin some fun....besides whats to be jealous of? the fact that now the iphone made it to the bottom feeders of the media in a bottom feeding pole? LOLOL
If only you knew how many girls came up and started talking to me because of how big my EVO was...
and i'm sure a large percentage of the guys are gay too.
Did anyone else notice that, regardless of phone choice, the women had more sexual partners than the men?
it seems that Steve Jobs will soon be in ICU, the green monster eating his apple

I know, but technically speaking it is still the Intensive Care Unit, and we all are aware of SJ's health issues. I would not want SJ dying of cancer no matter how I feel about the company.
It is like an innocent joke about for example fat people, said by a thin person in presence of an overweight person - not appropriate unless they are true friends and both know they are joking but wishing each other well.
It's the stupid patent system that feeds trolls like crApple.
Microsoft isn't any better crapping about how much they earn from Retailers for every Android Phone they sell:

Understood. Maybe not the most sensitive wording, but I doubt English is his first language. Besides, his post is peppered with smileys, not exclamation points so it's all good.
I'm not a fan of Apple. I'm aggravated that the US doesn't get the coolest Android phone at the same time as the rest of the world. Apple is only delaying the inevitable. How do you compete against open source and the world's hardware heavy hitters? What do you do when you're getting beaten it terms of volume and specs? You sue, of course. And pretend everyone is copying you and that you didn't borrow and repackage anything from anyone else. I hate the patent system.
So now we have to wait. Great, three months is like an eternity in Internet years.
And in retaliation news...
The patent war between Apple and HTC has just gotten a little more interesting. HTC has now filed suit against Apple for its infringement of three patents, two of which HTC just acquired in April in its purchase of ADC Telecommunications.

Looks like a tactic to get Apple off HTC's back.. I like it.. What do you guys think?
I can't decide if its a good move or not....
You gotta think that these guys are smart enough to sue someone knowing they have a legit shot at getting something out of it.
I can't imagine the geniuses behind HTC Corp. are gonna just pick a few patents out of a hat and 'go with it'. That would be dumb.
Boom goes the dynamite

this is all getting way to crazy
I wish I could read legaleese to define exactly what apple is infringing on,just for information's
sake. I do feel that Apple needs to get a clear message to sit down..if they got a stranglehold
on the market they would just be setting themselves up for more lawsuits..in turn screwing the
Consumer base that saved their ass.. *disclaimer * I gots no love for apple
Props to HTC, I'm tired of Apple and their patent on everything that pertains to technology and how they sue anyone they deem a legitimate competitor.
I hope HTC wins all their suits and Apple goes away with their lawsuit tantrum.
yea apple deserves whats coming to them. stop trying to dominate. its androids turn.
Good for HTC, maybe they will get lucky and win. Stick that in your iHole apple!

I'm not making jokes. I'm actually sad about this and I could only hope to meet a great mind someday whether it matters after death or not. We lost a part of our lifestyle today with Steve's passing. My prayers are with his surviving family, friends and co workers. I can only hope they have the strength, including Apple to carry on.

he passed away the day after the event. my moms friend who is an accountant for apple said they it was right after lunch when they got the word.
I can't seem to avoid people who call this guy an innovator and inventor. I'm looking around at the heaps of computer junk I've accumulated over roughly 25 years and I'm hard pressed to find one thing that he invented. Aside from a GUI, which can be argued was an inevitability, I'm not even feeling the innovation.
Frankly, Apple did a lot to dumb down technology so idiots could use it while also sacrificing a good deal of productivity. (Contrary to popular belief, GUI's and touch interfaces are much less efficient interfaces than command line and hard keyboards.) Perhaps we wouldn't have Android today if it wasn't for iFone, but frankly, I wouldn't have missed either if BlackBerry hadn't totally dropped the ball. If they pick that ball back up with QNX, I'll be shoving off this touch screen only thing with joy.
apple aside, he was an incredible man none the less. His achievements are something to aspire to. Steve you will be missed.
RIP
I may not have been a fan of him, but I feel like we've all benefited in some way because of him. My condolences to his friends and family, rest in peace.

So I'm sitting at home watching a show on CNBC about Steve Jobs and Apple called "Steve Jobs: Billion Dollar Hippie" with my wife. I get an email and grab my ET4G to check it...
My wife asks me "Isn't this a show about Apple?", I said ya why?
She then says... "Then why are they talking about IPhones and Ipads and showing your tablet?"
I guess I gave her that puzzled what look... She went back a few seconds to show me.
Here's what I saw...

Hahaha awesome
Now I understand that why Apple is suing Samsung for similarly looking devices. Even CNBC is not able to distinguish them
That is freakin FUNNY!!! Reminds me ... I have to call my cable provider and request a DVR!!!! Life is so much easier with one!
That is insanely funny. The sad thing is, I'm sure that very few people even noticed. Who wants to bet that in 2 or 3 days, the media will pick up on it and this XDA thread will be the source.
looks like they are filming in the apple store?
Haha. I watched this doco too just the other week and I totally missed it. Was probably too busy playing with my tablet to notice its brother on screen.
You'd think they would be able to notice the big Samsung logo on the back of the tablet. Or all the white backs of the Samsung tablets in the background.
OMG you stepped into another dimension
In that dimension the Samsung Galaxy tab we know here is actually the Apple IPAD!
Very funny.
But to the uneducated (which is probably 90% of the population) any tablet type device is automatically thought of as an iPad. I get it at work all the time. "Nice iPad." Me: "It's not an iPad, it's a... oh never mind."
That is the power of branding to the general public. Have to give Apple credit for that. Any MP3 player is automatically considered an iPod. Most smart phones are called iPhones, regardless of what they are. Bugs the crap out of me, but it usually isn't worth my breath to correct them.
Kind of like Xerox, Kleenex, and Q-Tip.
