Obviously not for long.

Nice hole you shot through your own head Samsung. Well done. Now STFU and stop whining about being caught and paying the penalty. Deal with your self-destructive behavior.

According to iSuppli (as reported by The Economist), Samsung contributes only 26% of the component costs in the iPhone.

Stop exaggerating, Pat.

Feel free to share your views.

Heaven forbid! All they need do is check whether the info this guy gave the other jurors was correct and untainted and they suddenly have the rug pulled out from under them. Jurors actually use their own experiences when judging and share their knowledge. Don’t see why this is any different. Jurors don’t judge as a lone island.

I see this as the only way to do a valuable physical product. Otherwise you are one of 6 wannabes and only the cheapskate consumers take you seriously.

In a larger sense, I can see this leading initially to a smaller number of competitors. One can say that is not good.

But then along come Jeeve Stobs and suddenly…a new minimal form factor phone, narrow screen & optional miniature earpiece and hands off answer and call appears which can appeal to people who really want the cell phone to be primarily for calls.

After all, do you really want your cell phone to do emailing or web browing and be a big and klunky phone?

The trick is still to answer consumer needs first with the best and then keep improving.

The Jury Foreman will be the cause for a re-trial or an Appeal. Meanwhile back the Ranch, Samsung will be supplying 60+% of all Apple device’s innards.

It certainly wasn’t good for Research in Motion or Microsoft. Maybe it wasn’t even good for Verizon. But that’s a little like gazing at your navel. What really bothers me are the reporters who want to say the jury ruling agains Samsung was bad. Our patent laws make it illegal to copy. If these savants really don’t like patent law, why weren’t they calling for legal changes anytime in the last 20 years? It’s more like they want the courts to apply the laws selectively, which the judges do way too often.

Firstly it protections the millions/billions of dollars spend on R&D and it also is an incentive. Secondly, it forces everyone to innovate and not steal. Anyone that thinks that this is bad for innovation needs to check the dictionary for the words “innovate” and “steal”. Because up until now, the rest of the industry (Samsung, HTC, LG, et al) has stolen from Apple and have not spend one thin dime on innovation. The only way this hurts the consumer is by removed infringed upon, thereby, knockoffs that have stolen not innovated….

It sets a judicial standard for the innovators to halt the rampant profiteering from the pirates and other market bottom-feeders regardless how large the cloning corporation may be.

It will eventually help insure a better environment for the consumer, where they can better distinguish the quality from the crap.
