Samsung to Depose Jony Ive and Other Apple Designers, Seeks iPhone 4S Source Code

Well by your own argument that is exactly what Samsung is doing so I repeat the question are you ok with Apple doing it?

Yes...I am....and I'm ok with Samsung doing it too....You're still suggesting that protecting your patents and IP is insane?

 

[D.T.]

Bad bulging capacitors?

You got it. Plus according to an EE buddy of mine, underspec'ed in a couple of places (I used high grade Panasonic caps for my fix, upgraded a few vs. the OEM spec ... been working fine for ~6 months).

Lawsuits are how you find out if the Apple IP is valid. Further, are you claiming to know that all of Samsung's lawsuits are baseless, and they have no valid IP to defendMost, if not all, of the IP at the core of the Apple lawsuits is ridiculous?

where did I claim that? Musta been my evil twin brother.

I am _not_ taking sides, after all I have nothing to lose either way.

That said, to all of you who are so sure that Samsung is a bunch of uneducated losers, you are in for a rude awakening. You obviously have no clue about big international business.

This will be a huge eye opener for you, if you have the courage to accept the facts. It will also be a great learning opportunity.

If you can surpress your burning desire to employ selective reading, you will see it from a different perspective.

To use a phrase from the skater boys... "just sayin"

Right. I can see you didn't take any side. It was a very subjective argument.

BTW, did they give you the fangirl-of-the-year award?

All the lawyers in the world cannot save Samsung from their piece of crap plasticky phones.

Plastic phones are better than glass phones. Why? Makes the phone weigh less and it won't break easily.

You just did

Does the Court not have to approve depositions, otherwise plaintiffs/defendants can go on fishing trips just to confuse things.

My 5 posts in this thread. I think you may need a new prescription for your coke-bottles.

LOL...WTH. Samsung's legal strategy is pretty funny.

In the legal environment, it's known as a joke.

Protecting granted patents and IP is insane? Oh wait, this is the "it's not right to be a bully" argument right?

Yes...I am....and I'm ok with Samsung doing it too....You're still suggesting that protecting your patents and IP is insane?

This is what happens when you respond to a question that was directed to someone else.

I say get Ive deposed! Not like they have anything to lose

F samsung

Actually... I love their TV's... IMHO, some of the best ones out there and easiest to use. It's the one area Samsung really does well.

My experience was terrible. I had a model with a stuttering problem and they kept mailing me firmware updates, which I had to load via USB. After doing this a few times (to no avail) I returned it.

Mine worked perfectly from day 1 and is still chugging along at my ex's place without an issue. Anecdotes are fun, aren't they?

What's the hate with Samsung? Apple is the one that started it.

Samsung have been supplier (and continue to be) of Apple and their idea , technology approach and their software... And like thieves, they have put those idea into products of their own.

Result is product that emulate Apple iDevice (even the box and packaging have been copied) Don't everybody see it...?

Buying from them make them grow...validate their actions

Same apply with Android (A.Rubbin and Eric S.) who once work at Apple/seat on the board and fly to Google and launching their OS....

I rather give my money to an American Company....

 

[Oletros]

From The Verge and patent attorney Matt Macari:

Two main components go into a patent plaintiff's case: infringement and damages. In order to prove an alleged patent infringement, it's pretty clear Samsung will need to see the relevant parts of Apple's code, just as Apple will need to examine the relevant parts of Android for its case
...
And Samsung's second request to secure the agreements between Apple and the Australian carriers seems reasonable as well — it can make a strong argument that it needs the telco's iPhone-related revenue and share data in order to calculate any potential damages Apple may have to pay.

Mmm, so, you're saying that Apple will steal from Palm because they have hired some high level engineers to work in iOS?

Do you know that was Apple who called Schmidt to the Apple board a year after Google acquired Android, don't you?

Indirectly bolstering the likes of Samsung, LG, Sony, Foxconn, ARM Holdings, Nokia and others.

This obsession with supporting "American" companies really is a vain prospect but I do see it banded about here. It's as if supporting non American companies is somehow inherantly evil.

Any reasons why American companies are better than others?

samsung sucks, who in the hell would want one of those cheap plastic toy-like phones that run that donkeyed up os??

it's crap

You do realize you are surrounded by water, right?

Plastic is better than glass because it makes phones lighter and more durable.

Palm?

From The Verge and patent attorney Matt Macari:

ehhhhh Former Palm CEO(John Rubinstein) was Apple employee...
If Apple a stolen some patented idea from Palm... i didn't heard much about it...

Anyways...before iPhone, the cell world was pretty lame to my eye.... After iPhone the landscape have changed dramatically.

I think that those 3 should receive "tip of the hat"
1-Apple
2-Nokia
3- Microsoft for making their own iteration of a OS ans smartphone

Google and Tawainees/korean manufacturer are very different in that respect...

Do you know what Steve Jobs have said of this situation.... "they Stole from us...." and all the thing that make him swear....
The whole situation is so clear, they steal the concept.

 

[divinox]

Samsung and their lies are not going to get my money.... Not for smartphones nor for my new tv set (planning to buy this November) no!
Samsung.... What have you done so great lately? Yeah just Ripping off others idea!

Extremely narrowly, world-class displays and nand's. As for the other 99% of their greatness, you'll have to do your own research.

Just as soon as you give us the sourcecode for your supposedly open source Android 3.0 and 4.0.

KTHXBAI.



Yeah. I think I'm going to support Japan and buy a Sony instead. It actually kinda pisses me off I already own two samsung plasmas lol.

1) Sony nowadays are mostly known for their huge premiums.
2) Last time i checked, Samsung produced panels for Sony.
