I think you're both wrong!

I like the hardware of the SGII I have, and I would prefer the hardware of the Galaxy Note, or the Galaxy Note II.

But also, remove TouchWiz, and still the Galaxy Note II has some very nice and innovative software allowing for pseudo-windowing on Android, as well as "Pen" aware apps.

The problem is that when Samsung customise Android, they do so to (a) differentiate, and (b) to ensure you can't upgrade.

On a more "on topic" note, this juror is a turkey. As another poster pretty much said "prior art can not be ignored".

Here's another gem:

"Just to make it clear, the phone that I have is a Motorola Droid X2 and the reason I'm mentioning that is because it is in the record, it was told to the judge and told to the court when asked that question.

And it is of a slider variety so it has a normal keyboard, and for that reason it's not among the 26 accused phones. "

The Droid X2, of course, isn't a slider. The juror probably has a Droid 2.

Nice. Except they awarded $130e6 in damages for the Epic 4G. A slider.

Good catch. I forgot that part.

The more I hear from the jury the more it sounds like they first decided "Apple good. Samsung bad." and filled in the rest from there.

You can upgrade. And, as a bonus, you get rid of Touchwiz.
