Sammy you're pushing your luck....you're about to get your ass handed back to you in a million pieces....lmao, wow these folks just dont know when to quit.
Neither product officially exists at the moment.
In the meantime Apple has already been granted access to current and/or existing Samsung product(s).
Completely different divisions. Samsung is under contract with Apple.
Well, when they *do* do wrong, I'm sure we'll hear of it.
Apple's more or less been doing everything right for a few years now. I'm not sure why you find that so objectionable.

You know, if all of this legal stuff went away, companies would have to produce products that kept up with the development of technology to remain competitive. Now they can just sue each other and hold back on releasing what scientists are capable of producing in order to keep the prices for parts low and the retail prices of products high...
The post I quoted said "Samsung is a loser... Bunch of morons." In response this most insightful post, I asked the one who posted it what does it infer about Apple for doing billions of dollars a year business with them. And Apple is under contract with Samsung.
You'll be surprised how persuasive judges and courts can be
Haha - Now children settle down and go stand in opposite corners until you come down
There's always an article written about some new smartphone outselling the iPhone in a certain place for a certain time. I guess it's a great headline for grabbing attention. I seem to recall the same thing happened when the original Galaxy S was launched 6 months ago...
Samsung Galaxy unseats iPhone as No.1 in Japan - Nov 4, 2010
So what ever became of that?
Hmmmmm... last quarter Apple sold 18 million iPhones and Samsung only sold 10 million smartphones worldwide.
Whoops.
I guess those sensational headlines weren't enough. Maybe the new Galaxy S II will finally rot the Apple... but I doubt it...
There will be a new iPhone in a few months... and the cycle will repeat.
And much like the articles 6 months ago... the article you linked today won't matter that much in the long run...

No, they will have the choice to either comply or to drop the case...
I think samsung throw them a curve ball here and if the judge orders them to hand over the iphones and ipads they will probably do so, but I wouldn't bet on it.
I bet if this was Microsoft vs Apple you'd be complaining how Microsoft should stop bullying other companies.
Agreed, to a point.
My point was that it is in the consumers interest to have vicious competition and companies trying to beat others products and prices. Issues occur when companies stop developing products for fear that others will copy them.
Get realiPhone is 10 years ahead of both of those phones.
Wow, have you even seen the Galaxy SII? I'm betting the answer is no.
They have screwed up quite a number of times, I guess your to blind to see that?
This is madness. Bet that the lawyers must sign a contract on pain of death to see them. If not, I think a great bomb will go off.
This. And, lets just say Apple is lucky they are an American Company and not a South Korean one...
Whats wrong with wanting to see the next iPhone? Apple threw a fit over Samsung and started all this.
Outside of this litigation, isn't there another patent infringement suit filed by samsung as a retaliation?
Also you guys don't think the timing of this law suit in line with their upcoming release of galaxy s2 in US considered a strategic move by apple? I think there was a recent news about someone from apple visiting samsung to use their new high resolution (2560x1600) 10" tablet/slate screen. I guess this is similar to how the politic is done in real life where you push and pull as needed

Why couldn't Apple just show them an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2, and said that they are planning on making the iPhone 5 and iPad 3 more of internal upgrades?
Yes
they should drop every single business outside of making TVs
that includes supplying parts to apple....
This sounds similar to my last company.
A semiconductor company (company a) was pissed another company (company b) stole so many of their good employees that company a was going to sue for patent infringments and wanted all their design plans of their products.
Company B said absolutely once we get all your product designs so we can specifically see what the infringments were.
Company A backed off.

Man.
Some of these responses were absolutely predictable.
The offenders know who they are.

Sorry, Apple cannot tell a judge to pound sand.
