Years refining this overscroll effect?

No. But the design of their products. If you followed the trial, they told the entire process on how they reached the final design of iPhone. It took them years to make it perfect. Taking inspiration is different, and we all know what samsung did for staying in market. LEGALLY, apple had no choice but to take these silly looking patent to the courtroom. Now is the time when we will see real innovation.

I don't know why people build so much of hate for big corporates. Samsung is no different. If you see number of patents Samsung holds, you will be stunned. And most of them are something they never even implemented in their software remotely.

Well that's not what we're talking about here. This is a thing too simple for a patent.

I could probably see many things in iOS/the iPhone worth patenting, but this is not one of them.

I'm not against Apple, I'm against ALL useless patents like this and probably many of Samsungs'.

I don't begrudge having patent nukes for deterrence purposes. I begrudge using them offensively.

[ankitaggarwal]

So basically, apple falls in latter. Right?
