"Remember how Apple made a mockery of the DiamondTouch table display that
Samsung brought before the court? They said that it could not constitute prior
art because "you would have a hard time putting that in your pocket".
My blood boiled when I read that. Smoke and mirrors, and a spinning dance to
confuse the jury."

"But that is not "on a smartphone" or "on a
touchscreen".
Considering how the USPTO seems to grant new patents for
old and well known methods as long as they are performed
"on a computer", I am not sure this would count as prior
art to the patent office. It should, but it might not.

The fact prior arts was rejected for the court only shows how us patent system
is deeply broken. That also shows a complete racketing happening in real time
where Apple is really the notorious thief.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
