It would be nice if people could understand that these are major corporations that only have one purpose and that is to make money. They don't care about you, they don't care about me, all they want to do is move some product. There is no good or evil, they will cut each others throats to try to get ahead of each other. They would screw over their grandma to try and make a buck and then lie and say it was what she wanted.

It might be nice if you could keep on topic. People are aware that corperations exist to make money. Doesn't mean we cannot take an interest in what is going on with these companies and discuss it. Especially when these companies produce products we like. Discussion is what forums are for! In this case people with preferences for or against the court decision are able to discuss many different opinions related to the decision and both companies conduct before during and after the case

When a n"no glasses required" 3D TV gets produced that is within a reasonable price range I will be on board with it. I mean why not? Much like our phones, we can always stay with 3D if that is what we are comfortable with. I just like having options.
I say bring it on. The more 3D phones on the market, the more 3D content we get. Things are pretty sparse right now other than the youtube app, which is 96% 3D cat videos, 3% foreign 3D trailers, 1% stuff I care to watch.
Of course when Rovio releases Angry Birds 3D, nothing else is gonna matter anyway.

"HTC just filed the lawsuit with the U.S. District Court of Delaware. Wearen’tsure what the 3 patents that Apple is being accused of infringing upon are, but we know that they have to do with the iPhone, the iPad and Mac computers. According to Reuters, HTC is even seekingtriple damages for what HTC is calling willful infringement. HTC is also said to be seeking compensatory damages."
I for one think that these lawsuits are going out of hand. But it's nice to hear that HTC finally has something to stike back after they lost a suit from apple.
Uhhhhh oh... As far as "real" is concerned I do believe that is what **** has just got.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
EDIT: Now that I am home and can type easier I just have to say that out of the context that we are all very well aware of I whole heartedly do not condone such obvious abuses of the patent system and the courts nor do I appreciate the stifling effect this most obviously does have on innovation. If you aren't a huge multi-billion dollar player with a huge patent pool and Google ain't got yo back, well, you are not entering the market. The barrier to entry is fncking astronomical. There will be no more paradigm shifting inventions from little guys...unless the little guy sells his innovation to someone with the money and the muscle and the connections to go to war with the likes of AAPL and MSFT. Monopoly, oligopoly, whatever form it takes...so long as bull**** like this persists there will only be tiny incremental moves forward in technology.
That said, I'm glad HTC is doing this. It is the only way to do big-tech business apparently. Between teh GOOG's fncking gigantic new warchest of patents from the damn near oldest member of the tele-comm market and HTC with counter-suits and counter-injunctions I've got to admit to having a nerd-rage inspired b0nar. I hope they tear the whole fncking system to pieces.
...more realistically, I just hope this IP-based game of mutually assured destruction, where the only way to win is to not play, is seen as truly as absurd as it is and thusly instigates reform...though I doubt it.
Enough being reasonable, off with Apple's head...
I am getting the popcorn ready...this is getting to be fun.
Apple is going down like a sweet muffin...
HTC gonna make some Apple sauce.

I agree the patent wars are quite insane, but mainly because it's mostly apple going after every android manufacturer because they sell a touchscreen device. Google has made it known that patent reform needs to happen now. I think all of the moto patent's are going to go towards crashing the system.
Google doesn't want to take out apple they make too much money off ads on their products. HTC on the other hand I think would like to mount Steve Jobs head on a pike in the front yard!

Is anyone else just totally sick of Apple's abuse of the court system? I recently had the displeasure of having to repair a MacBook Pro for my daughter and I have to say that they have what I can only see as built in design flaws. Like the keyboard. You have to replace the entire aluminum top shell when you replace the keyboard... really? Is that really necessary when the keyboard is designed with thin layers that creates a very strong capillary effect, making it just suck up any fluid that comes close? I replaced just the keyboard thank you. Tediuous and annoying but $65 beats $450 any day of the week. F Apple. I now steadfastly refuse to purchase anything they market. These are acts of fear and not much else I think... keep living by the sword Apple I can't wait to see the tides turn

Hey Apple, I have an excellent idea:
How about INSTEAD of suing your competition, you make your phones BETTER?
Too bad that's never gonna happen. This Cheapo-Depot company is going to make phone after phone after phone, and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between them. They're going to lose one day, whether they give up or someone bombs their facility, theyll give up, and all of us Android users will laugh at their failure and pain.
The Next Sentence Is TRUE.
The Previous Sentence Was A LIE.

Sickening! I know Google has been trying to stay out of this but they need to step it up and fight back. Time to take off the gloves.
Instead of using its resources to develop their products, Apple chooses to put out essentially the same phone year after year and attack Android for surpassing them. Apple should just pick up its ball and go home.

Wow... Just wow. I'm glad I have an Android phone right now. They may be out of phones soon. Google won't be able to sell any of them.
The ONLY good I see from this is it will force Google to innovate, and completely reinvent the OS from the bottom up. It could prove revolutionary someday.

Apple really isnt doing anything but hurting themselves! They are getting alot of negative PR from all this patent crap. I hope this comes back to bite them ten fold!! I will continue my apple boycott....
I really just hate Apple more and more when I see these articles get released...
This is good in my eyes..hopefully a patent disaster is what it will take for the reform the patent system.desperately needs..until then apple is playing by the rules..even if the rules suck..until its fixed they will continue to add to their ip arsenal
I don't understand this patent and how much reach it has yet. It seems almost harmless from some of those images. Most apps I use and have seen aren't like that, at least not EXACTLY. So how similar can it be before Apple sues? I think that answer will determine how impactful this patent is on Android.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
It depends how broadly a judge would interpret them..ie..we open the gallery and have a bunch of clickable jpgs..it may not look the same but I think its the idea or processes behind it that matter..its such bs..mobile patents are ridiculous..and this whole.thing is getting out of hand..apple is acting like a spoiled child ..had everything handed to them and cry when the gravy train ends..now they will have to work to stay competitive. Shows their true colors ..
Apple is trying to patent the gui. They're going after everybody including Microsoft. I hope their company crashes and burns. A lot of people and companies had a hand in making gui interfaces for computers. And the smartphone is a computer. I guess they want us all to go back to the command line if we don't own a mac.

My reaction to all of this:
Meh
The patent system is garbage. This patent isnt going to held water. They will use it to ban a few products until it gets nullified
http://www.americanbar.org/groups/i...verview_of_open_source_software_licenses.html
We need to look at the reality of their patent. It's a snapshot in time of a gui interface. Every item in their depiction can be replaced with a newer more flowing one.
Apple has built a box, patented it, now they have to live in it.
For example they don't own a patent on jpg. They cannot have patented a 3d gallery since it didn't exist, at filing time. They didn't patent multitouch since the hwd was not available at patent filing time ( assuming at least 3 years to granting). ( I guess I'm saying here that Apple only patents technology the plan to release, they are an applied R&D house, lol ).
So Apple has a 2d, single touch, non-intuitive gui of years back. Great.
Think of all the Android Innovation this patent will cause.
If I can think of at two new paradigms for mobile platforms, think of what others can design.
This patent may, just be the impetus for new items. Who does new well?
It seems like the only way for google to protect themselves is to go closed source and then sue apple for everything they infringe upon

And then there are the people who think its going to cause car accidents, promote inattention, etc. Others are complaining about the cost (which isn't even released yet) or the lack of apps (again.. not released..)
I don't understand the constant "doom and gloom" outlook the general population and the media have on this. 90% of their information is plain wrong, and the other 10% is misinterpreted..
