A summary judgement motion brought by Samsung back in May was denied in its entirety by Judge Lucy Koh on Saturday; the Korean manufacturer had attacked the validity of Apple's IP rights and Apple's FRAND-related antitrust claims...

Dafuq?
I smell bribery in play here , they should just make apple 's patents FRAND so that they can't sue anyone
51. Sniggly posted on 01 Jul 2012, 03:55 5 1
No, but see, FRAND is only for the big stuff, you know, the patents that took actual EFFORT and TIME and MONEY to come up with.
None of Apple's patents regarding the iPhone qualify.

True, apple should just try and innovate, they're getting annoying with all the baseless lawsuits

If they're baseless how come they keep winning?
188. wassup posted on 01 Jul 2012, 16:00 0 1
because the judge is some hipster chick who knows squat about tech. Let someone who actually knows about tech (Posner) decide.

Ok apple also won in Germany and Australia. What's your excuse there?
225. wassup posted on 02 Jul 2012, 00:45 0 2
Because the judge's there don't know squat either . They should have special tech judges for these kind of cases

it's beause Apple keeps putting useless patents like slide to unlocked ect. and also paying these courts. lets see 96 million dollars

I may be the first one to say it but man, what a race traitor. Only in California can someone have so much self-hate for their own race that they have to be so biased.

You're really going to go there and accuse her of hating her race? Fandroid trolls are willing to sink to new lows daily.

I don't have to go into anywhere that's unfamiliar to Judge Lucy Koh. iSheep would believe Apple invented cellphones if Apple told them they did.

why not Samsung tells you they dont copy and you guys believe that right?

I think it's time Google step in and do something about this. I mean, c'mon, injunction against the Galaxy Nexus?? This is vanilla Android! Samsung is taking all the bullets for the entire Android ecosystem. What the heck is OHA doing?

How come Apple didn't get sued for dropdown notifications bar?
87. deathyyy posted on 01 Jul 2012, 08:12 2 0
Apple is getting sued also, but I don't know if it's for the dropdown navi. Either way it's all ridiculous, whichever side of the OS fence you're on.
81. daimos posted on 01 Jul 2012, 07:21 1 2
Samsung should not worry too much, but speak with Google and together sue apple for dropdown notifications bar, and half of the ''new'' features of iOS6 before iPhone 5 will be released. All Android makers should come together and launch one suit against Apple. I would LOVE to see what would happen then...
129. taco50 (banned) posted on 01 Jul 2012, 11:31 1 3
Android doesn't have a patent for the notification bar. All of android is stolen so how could they sue?
139. daimos posted on 01 Jul 2012, 12:08 2 1
Operating systems cannot have patents, boyo, only companies can. Semantics aside... did first iOS had it? Android surely did. Opening tabs from lock screen? Wasn't HTC first? So, so far it seems that your brain has been stolen so far by Timmy Cook and company. Btw, I just wonder what Apple would do if they would find out about Pear OS :D
183. BattleBrat posted on 01 Jul 2012, 14:55 1 1
@Taco GOOGLE ALREADY APPLIED FOR THE PATENT FOR THE NOTIFICATION BAR YOU FOOL!

HOW THE HELL is notification bar stolen they had it since the first NEXUS WAY before Apple. and pretty soon we know it they would copy something off from Jelly Bean

why oh why, mascot of android phone, nexus got banned, where is google?

Why Apple not sue Google, or Apple to scared ?

They really need to replace this idiot with Posner. He actually understands Apple's motto, "If you can't innovate litigate."

They need to have Honorable William H. Alsup, decide all these allocations since he has knowledge of code written and OS operations, This judge (Lucy Koh) has no clue on how this stuff works.

Siri patents, its amazing how these type of patents have been around for years but once Apple buys any company that uses the same type of tech, software, or patents , they can get away with suing other companies .
120. remixfa posted on 01 Jul 2012, 10:25 5 3
this proves that we need a new generation of judges that are tech savy. How can you be a judge in a case that you know nothing about. seriously. Are there any tech savy judges out there or are they all just old people without a clue. geesh.
174. gallitoking posted on 01 Jul 2012, 13:43 2 3
so you are saying Remix that we need a judge for murders. simple traffic violations and when it comes to tech?... wow.. you clearly dont know all the years into a law school they have to put it to become judges and you just because you dont agree with them you critized them... walk up to a judge and tell what you just said. please..
186. remixfa posted on 01 Jul 2012, 15:50 1 1
no gallito. Im saying that tech patent law is a wholey different animal than regular law. And with the major abuses from nearly EVERYONE concerning patent law, we need a group of trained techno-savy judges in that ring to make fair decisions. It would stop a lot of nonsense until we can get the patent system itself fixed which is at the heart of the problem.
Like normal your arguments are weak and full of fallacy. By your logic a podiatrist should be just as skilled in endocrinology as an endocrinologist. There are specialties for a reason. So you can become great at something instead of just good at many things. Judges should be no different. Hell, lawyers are no different. You have tax lawyers, criminal lawyers, corporate lawyers. Yet.. we should have 1 judge fits all??? Come on chicken-head.

You guys are just amazing. Why is it that when Apple looses a case, everything is golden but when Apple wins, uh-oh we have corrupt or incompetent judges. So ridiculous you guys are. But keep going, I find it somewhat comical the way your twisted minds work.
News flash!! Just because things don't go your way doesn't mean it's wrong.

dont try to confuse me.. the law is the law.. if you brake it.. you will be punished.. is that simple.. they dont need a tech savy judge, just like PA doesnt require anyone to be a geek to be able to post.. look at me i know nothing about being a geek and here i am ..

Gallito talking about school, that's like a goldfish speaking of quantum physics, neither have any clue.
Gallito, you DO know in this country you can say anytrhing you want to a judge as long as you do not make a threat, correct? Not everyone is a gigantic p*ssy like you.

Fck this judge and Apple. I think we need a REAL JUDGE that knows the difference of technology. THESE LAW SUITS must put a end. we ARE ALL GETTING sick and tired of this B.S. FROM APPLE. if Apple hadn't made a phone non of this law suit so copy cat wouldn't have happened

Lol i know my icon is Samsung.. but this judge is obviously on Apple's payroll.

plain and simple, crush competition, looks like apple is winning ($$$), fandroids are on a losing team, and from the looks of these comments theyre pissed off. but at the end of the day you still have your phone right?... oh wait ... ;)

We do actually, how many android powered phones and tablets are there? On top of that how many of those phones/tablets are Samsung products?
For now, there will always be a need for an android based device, simple as that, an nice low cost, open source, enthusiast friendly device. The question is will it be economically viable for them to be produced and sold in the U.S?

I really hate Apple. Just because these companies are getting really close to their supposed "secret" to how they are able to run their devices very smoothly, they want to sue them. I do like Apple's device and I do own an iPhone, but I am losing respect for them. Oh...I also own both the devices that they are banning and 1 of them is running JB Android 4.1 and if I was Apple, I would sue as well...Getting too close!

That judge is just on.apple's side because all the rest of her family is employed by apple at foxconn or what ever it's called.
