"Android trolls"?
HAH! This is not a fansite, it's a RUMOUR site.
A complete rip-off? Ok, settled. Let's ban all tablets other than the iPad.
Got a tip for us?

Apple should get back to concentrating on fixing the bugs in the iPhone and iOS instead of wasting their time seeking bans of a tablet that doesn't hurt their sales at all. In reality it probably helps Apple sales. When the Average Joe technically challenged consumer tries a Galaxy tab, they will look for something easier to use. Another iPad sold. Apple isn't looking at the true picture here.
I don't see the point in some of these bans. I think it may hurt apple more than it helps. It may create some "hatred" or animosity toward apple, in consumers who did want the samsung tablet. I don't know the specifics enough to comment, just a bit from what I've seen on the news. Let them sell, sales will dictate which consumers want.
what would happen if Samsung decided to enforce its patent of 3G?.....every other manufacturer is shut down overnight!!!!.....they wont because i dont think samsung are behaving like the little pathetic child apple is becoming....do samsung care?....i doubt it as the phone side of samsung is a very very small part of samsung.....
First, 3G is industry standard. industry standard essential patents are subject to FRAND licensing. Second, Samsung is not the only entity with crucial patents in radio technology (Ericsson, Nokia and supposedly Motorola, are other key actors).
Whoa, if Samsung is losing lawsuits after making that photo frame they must have some really bad lawyers on their side.
Looking at that, the 1st gen iPad was clearly a ripoff of Samsung's industrial design. DANG! That's hella ripoff.
I really resent the "android fanboy haters" comments. I am a big Mac fan and have been since 2001 (Mac OS X 10.0.4!). Prior to that, I was (mainly) a Windows user with some FreeBSD toying around. For a while, I was a pretty heavy Apple fanboy myself...
Look what are you guys in for? Are you a gadget guy? Are you a nerd? Are you a geek? Or are you just a fanboy? I don't see anything wrong with liking everything. I love Androids, I love Apple's mobile products too (they are nice), and hell.. I like Blackberries a little (although I especially like Nokia's newest phones. Damn!)
I love OS X, I like Windows a lot, and I'm a big fan of Linux/BSD. Again.. what's wrong with that? ****.. Amiga OS' random rehashes from time to time are pretty darn cool too.
I do agree that this is an Apple product board, and that if you go hating on people for having Apple products that's just wrong, but I think the opposite is just as bad.
Perhaps that is a complicated argument, and it is tough to discuss these arguments over IP lawsuits when you have a bias.
Remember these things:
* Just because someone owns an X, does not mean they have to become a loyal defender of the manufacturer of X.
* It is totally ok to change your mind, especially if new evidence comes into light on a subject
* Maybe everyone is right and maybe everyone is wrong.
* Remember you can learn from others too.
(Time for me to go back to breaking some of these rules aye)
