ITC ruling
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, October 24 2012 @ 06:56 PM EDT
In the international arena Samsung seems to have fared better overall but in the US courts (specifically ITC being the latest ruling released ), it has lost repeatedly. Is there a bias towards Apple in the US or just that the non-US patent laws/court systems seem to suit Samsung more ?

Would any loss convince Apple to
stop the insanity? Of course not.
Here is another action taking
advantage of know-nothing trigger-
happy ITC judges:

The Samsung Patent Victory over Apple in the Netherlands - the Ruling ~pj Updated (ITC)
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, October 24 2012 @ 11:38 PM EDT
'The ITC just went the other way,...

“People see what’s happening in the other countries, but here in the U.S., ...”'


I think it has less to do the American courts favouring American companies vs a
broken patent system in the US.

i.e. The PTO has to give the broadest possible interpretation to a patent and
then leave it to the courts to narrow. But the courts are bound to give
deference to a patent even if the PTO never considered that particular
application.

I would say it is an old fashioned "chicken vs egg" except without the
chicken or the egg, lol

It's really an economic decision by the PTO, in that it is much better if
defendents pay to fight a patent instead of them (the tax payer).

Unless the iPhone6 is amazing, Apple is dead
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, October 24 2012 @ 11:52 PM EDT
Just watch, the silly iPhone 4s came out, everyone hoped for 4G like Android
had. It didn't.

iPhone 5 comes out, everyone hopes it has a bigger screen, 4G and NFC like
Android, 2 (1-1/2?) out of three ain't bad.

Their customers are grumpy about new iPads coming out, and making the ones they
just bought obsolete.

Everyone who was anyone had an Apple][ when the company started, everyone who
was anyone had an iPhone 4 when the company died.

(it'll be the iPhone 8 or 9 before they are dead, but you get the idea. The iPad
is still dominant, that will prolong their demise for a couple years)
