He's referring to Apple's "rectangle with rounded corners" patent.

Yeah he is, but some are too far away from normal conversation.

Can't see this one released without a lawsuit.

That because these days it's difficult to see any phone or tablet released without a lawsuit.

Why? If the next iPhone has a 720p display is an android want to be? Displays in electrics are alot like TVs. You aren't imitating someone because you have the same amount of pixels.

I agree with you, and don't get me wrong, its just like it stole its whole concept from apple, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I have always wanted an ipad with android os and a micro sd.

I guess they decided that it would be a more effective placement to share between the two orientations although that just seems off to me.

In every conceivable way, you mean color, screen size, resolution and pixel density?

That really isn't that much of a similarity.

That's why I said "on ALMOST every conceivable level". It's impossible to not draw a parallel between this and the iPad, but it's not a straight carbon-copy. For example, it runs a different OS and you can expand the storage capacity. Aside from that, it's looks identical to an iPad.

Okay, forgive me for the choice of words, then. You should be able to understand what I mean, though. Of all the similar devices out there, this has to be the closest thing to the iPad in terms of design.
