Apple accused Samsung of blatant "COPYING"

[PinkPatty]

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Apple Inc is facing delays in renewing its request that a U.S. judge ban Samsung Electronics' Galaxy 10.1 tablets, a key battleground in the worldwide patent wars between the technology giants.

Apple sued Samsung last year, accusing the South Korean electronics maker of "slavishly" copying the iPhone and iPad. Samsung denies the claims and countersued.

All these patent lawsuits have begun to become silly, and it hampers the future development of technology for us consumers.

Well look what happened last time this happened to Apple in the Early 90's, I don't think it's silly at all.

Well i guess so, because its not a kind of magic that every time samsung is getting same idea as apple have. Its true that samsung phones are based on different os but if you see the designs of phones of samsung they are all inspired from iphone.

Any time I hear about Samsung vs Apple this is the only thing I can think of:

Yes, these lawsuits are getting extremely silly, but on the other hand, as the above poster shows, Samsung keeps putting out stuff that looks so much like Apple's that you really can't think anything other than Samsung is deliberately trying to provoke Apple for whatever reason. The plugs, the boxes, the USB cables, (seriously! Isn't everyone going Micro USB and Samsung seemingly goes out of their way to make their connector look like Apple's Proprietary 30 pin connector? Come on!)
