… Which are all part of competition. Which leads me to instead state that:

Competition is the father of innovation.

Which is yet another reason why extremist socialism kills innovation. Witness China and its almost total lack of innovative drive. If there is no personal incentive, there is no invention.

RANT: How incredibly scary that this exactly the direction the entire world is headed, thanks to our dumbass Corporate Oligarchy. Ultra DUH Factor! You gentlemen and ladies get an F for FAIL. You will be thanked for killing mankind, you blithering idiots. The simple solution is full on respect for every human being and our miracle planet Earth. It’s not remotely difficult. But it is also NOT game playing, which means you BizTards will find it much too dull and simplistic. /RANT

Does that mean that Android cannot copy and paste Apple’s iDevices anymore???

The patent law was changed last year “read it” and yes Apple can and will defend this and use it to fend off copycats.

Why is it when Google or Samsung get a patent it’s defendable but when Apple gets a Patent for a feature they developed an that was stolen from other manufactures and used… Apple has no right to the intellectual property and design the intraduced?

Same old hate… Same old song.

Its ironic that Apple would win a CC&P patent . . . After all, that’s what Samslum, Gurgle and Mafiasoft at so good at.

I’m sure the patent is not on Cut Copy and Paste, but in the way it is performed on IOS devices.
However, in Samsung’s case it should be.

Funny stuff…as if Apple will be able to successfully defend a cut-copy-paste patent. It’ll never happen.

Copy and paste? It’s a shame the industry has to resort to this game. Next up “a method of respiration while using a mobile device”

Copycats are unfazed by patents, they infringe then cry in the courtroom that the patent holder is stifling competition. They might even win, or drag it out so long that the point becomes moot. See how little good these patents have done for Apple so far, business as usual for the Google Gangsters.

Lets hope the patent holds off Samsung and any other copy cat out there, regarding these functions. Hurray, its a good thing.

Those functions on Android truly suck. Even text selection is poor on Android. Apple got all that right, bang on the first time. Cheers for the granted patents.

The Mother of all inventions is not the patent, but the high cost of defense and enforcement.
