I am waiting for Apple to remove all is business ftom Samsung. We all know they will. I would not be surprised if Apple opened a processor fab plant in the US to make its own processors: easier to keep your IP out of the hands of Asian copiers…

The complaint hasn’t formally been made yet. The deadline, supposedly the last one, is sometime this fall says the report. Now that Apple won their desiign win against Samsung, they really don’t have a case.

This is beyond ridiculous!

On what grounds are they basing their complaint?!?

How does an objection like this from ShameDong and DebAcer not get thrown out of court? This sounds like Canadian legal buffoonery.

An outline of the iPhone, with the words “Made for iPhone” next to it. Of course Samsung would be upset. They wanted to use the same drawing with “Made for Android iPhones”.
I can see why they are upset. Beat at their own game I tell ya. Beat at their own game.

If Samsung spent as much time and energy on innovating…

Because the device outline clearly resembles various Samsung phones It would be confusing to Android users who couldn’t fit the accessories on their Galaxy devices.

I think they’re suing because they think it’s too similar to their trademark, “Made Like iPhone”

My guess is because the trademark looks like Samsung’s stolen iPhone ripoff. As the wheels of legal systems turn at a snail’s pace, Samsung is probably complaining it looks like their ripoff. The irony, huh?

Fuck Samsung. No, not “FSCK Samsung”. Fuck Samsung.

Setting aside *why* would do this (because I’m befuddled): I don’t understand the grounds on which they are complaining. Or put another way, what official reason could they possibly give for objecting to the trademark?

Because they’ll now fight Apple over everything. I guess they don’t appreciate the business Apple gave them.

Why on earth would they pick THIS to battle Apple over?

They really are the shit of the earth.

I worked in a marketing agency called Digitas for 2 years on this account and they never had a clue. Seriously, one of the worst, most clueless clients in the world and their AoR (agency of record) for print and TV was a shithouse that gave them garbage advertising with no ideas. “show sexy 20-somethings…” Done!

The company is run by engineers that do not think for themselves, which is funny, because all these shit-headed 20-somethings think that Samsung is just a cool company being repressed by Apple.
