What he wrote, except I think Apple isn't at fault in this patent deal. People love what they do. If you want to have an impact you have to change the way people think about products, about usability and about stability. So far, no other company than Apple provide such a service.

I JUST found and added an email address for Apple's PR dept, but that means that all previous signatures were NOT emailed to them.

i'm not a US citizen but i do understand all this hollabaloo about apple trying-to-be-badass on android,

the IBM simon (1st smartphone released in 8/16/1994) had a touch interface and it was more than a decade before apple even released thier 1st i**** to the masses, so its impossible they "invented" the stuff the smartphones have,

apple needs innovation to gain market strength and realize that thier glorious reign over the smartphone industry has ended and the only was to win it back is to innovate something and fast, or else it will be like palm all the way down hill

[General Topics] :
I think it is a disgrace with what apple are doing with the patent system! Not only do they have patents on things like unified search, as pointed out, they also have a patent out on a 'slide to unlock' kind of thing on mobile devices. Its utterly mad. But on the bright side I myself have read articles which write about samsung's technology pre-iPhone and its evoloution to what it is now, and you can clearly see the development in the designs.
[General Topics] Protibus:
I think it is more a problem with the patent system in general. It is an archaic outdated system not suited for the times and is unable to address technology or Amy products now for that matter. It is a shame Apple would stoop to this level and use these ridiculous tactics to attempt to squash the competition instead of creating a superior product to compete.

To make this thread most effective, can someone please do the research and make a chart or spreadsheet listing the main patents Apple claims Samsung violated, in one column then in a separate column, list the places the technology already existed. I'm sure most of these claims, I've seen in either older products or even in shows like Star Trek.

I've seen the charts that show apples claims, but not with them rebutted with claims that this technology already existed. It seems that many posters here already know about specific products already on the market that should make Apple's patents invalid.

Apple is for people who want everybody else to think they are special, and Apple lost the plot a long time ago. If Android isnt careful it will become just the same.

It's sad when a community as strong as the Android community won't stand up to a bully to protect the innovation and community they have worked so hard to develop. Google, Samsung, HTC, ... Didn't create the community, they didn't create the success Android has seen over the last several years. The Developers did, that's the great part of an open source development. We the users and the Developers are the reason for it's success, Google only gave us the tools to get the community started. The developers put in the long hours to create the ROM's we all use and love daily. The users, learned, tested, reported bugs and suggested ideas,

The point is we need to stand up for the community that we all love, if we don't who will.

I think the best way to deal with apple's patent trolling is simply for android dev's to start patenting every feature they 'invent'' and let apple cry the same tears

Another option would be to give android more user-customizability. For example, make the effect that happens when you reach the end of a scrolling object scriptable. Make the default script show the boring blue glow. Now, end-users can share scripts on these forums to add the bounce effect!

You should probably go ahead and patent scriptable effects like this too >:)

The one good thing Jobs did before he croaked was make it obvious how broken software patents are.

I will be signing and sharing this (though i don't have many people to share with on facebook). For those not aware, Apple was just granted yet another patent for Swipe to Unlock, but this time, it "specifies" that the touchscreen device is unlocked by sliding an unlock icon on the screen with no predetermined path, toward an unlock area on the screen. Basically, they've patented the same unlock screen that Google first introduced in Honeycomb nearly 2 years ago.

http://gizmodo.com/5950690/apples-l...s-from-dragging-anything-around-a-lock-screen

It really does have to stop, otherwise nothing good will come of their actions. Apple will wind up suing it's competition into oblivion, losing their one motivation to "innovate", as well as ending up creating a monopoly in the area.... forcing them to be split up.... and probably end up repeating the whole ridiculous process over again.
