No company should be required to turn over all of the IP to a market competitor for POTENTIAL evaluation of patent infringment. Only that which is the portion specified within the Law Suit should be subject to inspection and not by the other party in question!

An independent entity, under an NDA, contracted by the courts should perform the determination of code or function copying. In this case Both parties would be subject to equal submissions of IP to be independantly evaluated.

As it stands here, one entity (Apple) can potentially gain a competitive advantage over another by exposing various IP elements. It is a legally sanctioned espionage, of sorts.

iThink Samsung should scribble a few characters on a dinner napkin (paper, of course) and tell the CupertiNo based monopoly, "here is the code you requested;" krÅpple wouldn't know the difference [anyway].

Apple is just taking this patent infringement game too far... Now it's annoying to have to hear and see articles related to Apple this, Apple that... might as well not buy an Apple products so that they will have less money to go to court with... Just stupid, when they can use the money to focus on making better iPhones, cuz I personally hate them. The only think they are better in my perspective is the "organization" and the way it's designed, otherwise, the limitation makes it inferior to Android smartphones. Thumb me down people with you disagree, but this is just my opinion. Plus, I would probably enjoy owning a Galaxy Note LTE per say, or other $300 Android smartphones over the 4S, as of now. We'll see what Apple has to offer with the next, "'New iPhone'" in the fall... I hope they actually announce it as the iPhone 5...

and still PA is on a roll to praise and love apple. there are about 30 article in past 1 week alone describing how great apple is and how apple has changed after Jobs.
this clearly shows that nothing has changed. its the same old apple we are dealing with.

I always love the hilariously stupid responses these articles get. Phonearena's comically uninformed readership always seems to find a way to misconstrue the most mundane legal disputes into the next great evil committed by their least favorite company.

Just curious, but why would samsung need to turn over anything related to 4G. When this order started, Other than the soon to be released new ipad, apple has no 4G capable devices. And I agree with omega man, that an independent entity should be the one reviewing the source code, not the competition. And I would feel the same if Samsung were the one asking for the code. It just seems ridiculous to me to let a competitor look at something that is not for anyone's eyes outside their own company. How do you think that would go over if Coke was forced to hand over their formula to Pepsi, or KFC having to hand over their recipe to Popeyes. Just get an independent entity to come in and test. Make sure they're bound by an NDA so neither side's IP will be compromised. What's so hard about that?
