That would hurt !!!

It will force people who want to buy a Samsung phone to choose from their newer phones like the S3, there by netting Samsung more profit.

Patents were intended to make money back on investment, and nothing more, to help better society and creativity and not to destroy it. Even LG came up with Design before Apple, but Apple patents it first then its ok? Should I or you patent the on button by pressing it or switching it?

If one favored Apple in court but disagrees with Job’s on how Apple came to be then they are hypocrites, since that’s how apple became #1.
If they disagree with what patents were intended for then they are again hypocrites since that helped innovation.
If people want to live in the Stone Age then why do they have a computer or a phone?

If not, they’ll end up paying Samsung for a heck of a lot of lost sales.

But then none of this industry-wide obsession with suing makes much sense anyway.

Is it any wonder Apple sued? And won big?

I meant – Phones! not shares ..

Rewriting it again-

Does any one know what is the contribution to revenues coming out of the sale of these phone models? I am guessing very minimal..
