Google didn't "believe 'rounded corners' were patentable"

Google may have come out and said that Apple's victory against Samsung won't have an effect on the Android ecosystem as a whole, but it seems that the company has still learned a lesson from the ordeal. In fact, Google's Vice President for Corporate Development David Lawee...

Why on earth would any one want to patent rounded corners phone?
An Edge2Edge phone looks much concept and contempt, stylish, and sexy; it's like SONY. high-end Plasma TVs they don't have rounded corners. Recall the Nokia N74 concept! Italian and German concept iPhone, there all Edge2Edge, with rear flat back....!

Give them enough iCash and they'll patent the letter 'E' for you. Disgusting broken system being taken advantage of by a disgusting company.

Absolutely agree, you just don't simply file the application for rounded corners and get the patent. You have to pay over the top, much over the top to get it.
I think the system is not only broken, it's corrupted.

I'm afraid I have to agree what Google say...
Whether it is rectangular or not it shouldn't be patented...

No, you're right, these comment sections go way better when we have five guys hitting on Wendy over a profile picture that's not even of her.
/sarcasm

Quite possibly. Or she could be a woman.
Either way it's a perfect example of why women hate using internet forums and identifying themselves as such.

she's not a woman. we called "her" on multiple pictures which ended up being Vietnamese models

Is being an Apple fans is wrong??

who said wendy was a girl??? my assumption is that it's a sad internet troll like some crunchy spanish sounding jerk that we all know... just disguised with a feminine name and a chick's picture most of the time. Amazing how when she got called on using a Vietnamese chick's picture "she" changed it to an apple icon.

"Hey, the CEO of Samsung have rounded head, let's sue him!!!"
9. Sniggly posted on 11 Sep 2012, 19:32 2 0
Sounds like Google waited too long to do legal research, which I can't entirely blame them for. Rounded corners should not be patentable. On a larger scale, their naivete over the need to patent the s**t out of everything they do so that they don't get their asses sued off is quite endearing.

His last name is Lawee, you would think he would know a thing or two about laws.

Maybe APPLE should also patent the art of thievery....

Even the LG g and SONY s. looks much better looking phone than iPhone.

This reminds of when Monster Cables sued Monster mini golf for the use of the word 'Monster'. Absolutely ridiculous.

Ever heard of WINDOWS suing LINDOWS because LINDOWS sounded too much like WINDOWS?
34. remixfa posted on 12 Sep 2012, 01:08 0 0
the difference is monster is an actual word. lindows is not. lindows is MEANT to sound like windows.

More or less confirms my thoughts, that $omething is $eriously 'wrong' with the US patent office.
