I have gone back and read a number of your comments. They add absolutely nothing to the discussion beyond what a foul-mouthed, mean-spirited 16 year-old boy could add. Pathetic.

Why, I can’t imagine that anyone at all would fail to take seriously the studied opinion of someone illustriously named “blaargh”

When Google bought Motorola, they thought they have a shield to defend themselves against infringing Apple’s IPs. But Motorola proved to be a poisoned chalice. It caused a big hole in Google’s pocket. Google could have utilized Motorola to made its own phone but instead it turned to the serial copycat Samsung to do the job. Samsung recently got itself in big trouble and this is a harbinger of big trouble to the Android ecosystem.

Motorola is a shadow of its former self, holding patents that has proven useless to Google because most of them are being pledged essential. Google is not helping the unemployment problem in the US by sending many Motorola’s employees into the welfare system. Google got to wise up and get rid of Motorola. And to follow up with this step, Google must abandon Android. Google has not made money out of Android. Android itself is an infringing product. Instead of helping America Google is helping overseas raiders like Samsung to weaken American competition. Android has not contributed to innovation at all. Instead of making its own rectangle distinctive, it sets to copy the rectangle of the iPhone and the iPad.

Well, ZuneTang® is still here in person, if not in spirit. (And no, this isn’t a clue that he was me. That is not my honor).

It is my belief that the latest Samsung loss in court got the Samsung-Paid-Troll, or trolls, fired and tossed back into the gutter. Bye-bye anonymous cowards ‘Pat’ and ‘Gupta’ and ‘Dopey’ and ‘Sleepy’…

Get ready for a new crop of anonymous coward Samsung-Paid-Trolls, that is unless Samsung has given up their deceitful ways and decided clean house for a change. It could happen!

Applicable Traditional Proverbs:

“The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine.”

A variation of:
“Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small; Though with patience stands He waiting, with exactness grinds He all.”

Darn Google/Motorola. Justice is done.

It’s a bond. If the injunction gets overturned, apple loses whatever cash the judge determines is fair to the injured party. (that sounds like I actually know what I’m talking about!)

I was reading that thinking the exact same thing… I pretty much doubt the writer read the actual documents at all.

You are too kind Breeze, I would seriously suggest much harsher treatment for them, especially for one Eric Schmidt. (Good thing I don’t have a magic wand that works with the Cruciatus Curse…)
