UK Court not amused with Apple's 'copy' notice, ordered to replace it

I never said you were wrong, I can if you want?

Lately yes samsung has been more inovative than apple. Apple and samsung have reversed roles since 2008. but calling ios "Kindergarten" is a little fanboyism towards android. If andriod didnt have such a rough star tat the infancy of andriod with all the bugs and plain crappyness campared to iphone os 2.2 -3.0 I think that Andriod would be on top by far. I see samsung over taking apple in the phone department in the next 5 years. I am hoping that windows phone 8 will take off or someone make a linux base phone.

I sensed sarcasim in the original post. that is y I said what I said.

By "Kindergarten", It means safe. No real customization. What you get is what you get. Its a safe smartphone for ppl who have never used a smartphone. Those ppl who wish to use their device as they wish choose Android. Its not fanboyism, its fact.

I do agree with y it is called kindergarten. But I believe that it is a bad choice of words and for most android fans that use it is meant to be demeaning to other apple fan boys. Another reason y this apple vs android stuff is annoying as hell. Everyone is out to get each other.

Well I have both Apple and Android. Apple Iphone4 and a Android tablet. For me its not about fanboyism. Its about what my devices can do. I, like many consumers want the best bang for my buck. Apple no longer gives that level of "bang". Android atleast on the surface seems to listen to their customer base. Where Apple only wishes to listen to the almighty dollar. The whole patent issue has become such a joke because of Apple. Apple gets butthurt because not as many ppl are buying their craptastic products so they go after the ppl who make the products that have drawn away the Apple customer. This is less about business, and more about Apple throwing a tantrum.

"Look and feel" lawsuits should be completely banned. If current patent law had been around at the time the wheel was invented, some dirtbag company like Apple or SCO would have patented it and then sue for royalties whenever anyone else used something round. I could give hundreds or thousands of examples of things that current patent law would treat no differently than the stupid iphone vs android phone, and yet would outrage people if they were patented. Say, a ladder. Patent law is completely broken, and every time it's amended it gets worse.

Another example, maybe more relevant, of this idiocy is that when AT&T owned Unix, they tried to patent the way that application windows overlap on the screen. Like there's more than one way to do that? Fortunately, an academic at a university was able to prove that Unix didn't do it first.

As far as I'm concerned, the UK judge is the only one who got it right.

It should simply not be possible to patent something when the design is obvious and there is no practical way to do it differently. That applies to ladders, wheels, and yes, the current phone argument.

In 10 years Micro$oft will be an also-ran has-been company. Apple won't be far behind. Good riddance to both. Both companies were run by figureheads who, after inventing one original revolutionary product that the company was founded on, devolved into just expertise in selling ice cubes to eskimos, not further innovation. Companies which do predatory pricing just because they can should die off.
