waddler8 Â Â 10 #4 Posted August 25, 2012 Indeed. In recent weeks, a court in South Korea ruled that both technology firms had copied each other, while a British court threw out claims by the US company that Samsung had infringed its copyright.

jeweller   10 #6 Posted August 25, 2012 you wouldn't believe that apple are one of samsungs biggest customers, buying computer chips, screens etc from then.  but at the same time samsung cant tell apple were to go, because you need your biggest customer.  I dont like apple though, just trying to get a monopoly on the market.  Then again if i could brainwash millions of people into buying a phone for £500, and then bring the same phone out again with a couple of updates yet charge £500 again then i would.  Apple fan boys need to wake up. The galaxy s3 is by far the best phone on the market. (and no i dont have it). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

PrimalJay   10 #8 Posted August 25, 2012 Wish all this patent stuff would go away, it really looks like Apple is trying to rule the world and seem to be taking anyone down who mite hold a threat, would like Apple or any other major company to just stop, please just stop.  On another note, I would like to see what happens if Apple tried taking Microsoft to court, there would definitely be some fireworks then.

dosxuk   10 #9 Posted August 25, 2012 On another note, I would like to see what happens if Apple tried taking Microsoft to court, there would definitely be some fireworks then.  Apparently they have a mutual agreement not to sue each other, as they both own so many patents that each other relies on that it would just be a complete waste of time, money and effort.
