Indeed.

"Verizon [Sniggly]: [Over Radio] T-Mobile, this is Sniggly. Apple's an economic hero corporation now. It's got all your patents and it's got a blank check. Give me what you've got on Apple, and I'll take care of the rest.
[no answer]
Verizon: I know you can hear me on this channel, T-Mobile. You and I both know you won't last a week.
T-Mobile: And neither will you.
Verizon: T-Mobile... You ever hear the old saying, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend"?
T-Mobile: Verizon, one day you're going to find that cuts both ways... Apple is using site Infinite loop, Cupertino. You know where it is. I'll see you in hell. The reception there is better.
Verizon: Looking forward to it. Give my regards to AT&T if you get there first.

:D

Of course ya gotta credit Remixfa as T-Mobile. Make Whateverman Verizon as he's still working for them. I just got hired at Best Buy, so I'm more like the honorable mercenary playing all sides until an Oscar winning quip makes me decide to do what I knew was right the whole time. ;)

Still, funny post. You made my morning ilia. :)

Yeah I just remembered you quit the Big Red some time ago. :P

Still - you are our spiritual father when it comes to resisting Apple. Remixfa is the Grand General. Whatevermen and SuperEvo are Major Generals. I would be a spy amongst the enemy camp providing the resistance with support from the inside. :)

last i heard, the devil was waiting for steve jobs.. apparently he was a little miffed when he bought an i4 and found out that he couldnt get it to call anyone without a case on it. the whole "your holding it wrong" fiasco just reserved him a spot in the 7th circle.


and im being funny, anyone that thinks im wishing steve-o dead or any kind of lunacy can just STFU before u say anything... lol

Ya'll make me amused. My wife wonders why I troll on P.A. so much. I just do not know if she would appreciate it as much. :-)

I really doubt it, AT&T still banks too much on the iPhone, remember when they said they would never sell Android devices? If AT&T does go to back up Samsung, I'd be very surprised.

23. darth8ball (Posts: 520; Member since: 02 Aug 2011)

Yeah and how is that never selling Android working out for AT&T...oh yeah they DO sell Andriod devices
AT&T is trying like hell to convince the US government that they are all for competition and not about limiting choices and creating monopolies, it would be in their best intrest for their merger hopes to come out against Apples' anti competition hopes and dreams.

30. snowgator (Posts: 3604; Member since: 19 Jan 2011)

With all the problems AT&T is having with the D.O.J.??? They might file support for Apple, just cause they can...

11. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)

only a ibot would think that the comments are for apple's downfall.

in fact, i wish apple well.. i just wish they would change a few things about the company ,like their human rights violations. There is no benefit to "apple failing". What I want to happen is for the lawsuits and bullying to end. If apple was suing everyone for patent infringement, i wouldnt be saying anything about it. They arent. They judicial bullying

Sorry but I don't dance to apples tune nor any other companies. I buy what I want, when I want by whoever I want. For instance, let's say a company came along and made a video game console called a gamestation and it looked just like a ps3, you think Sony would just be like no problem. They would sue the heck outta that company. I have a galaxy s and say whatcha want but it looks just like my iPhone. Stop being in denial, Samsung blatantly copied Apple. I don't give a crap but its true. BTW you respond to every Apple posting, so who really is a ibot.

39. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)

if you pay attention, i respond to almost every posting on PA, not just apple ones.. not just android ones. ALL of them. I didnt know I had to be in a certain club to post on certain threads.

Ive stated before that elements do look similar. It looks like a large 3GS to me. The icons do look similar in some instances. But you know what? it runs a completely different OS, they dont intersect at any other points other than a few minor design things, they are not going out of their way to make you think that an android phone is really an iOS phone.
Its NOT the same as say the ability to sideload iOS apps illegally.

BTW, I would say sony doesnt have a standing either. Looking similar and being the same are not the same thing. Unless you have a patent for that design your crying over, you dont have a lawsuit.

And again, apple isnt suing for royalties like everyone else does, they are suing to ban competition all together. That is despicable. That is what a low life does. If you cant compete, sue them out of the arena.

Im not rooting for thier downfall IM just glad other companies are taking notice to the REAL truth of them wanting to ban their biggest competition. They arent targeting LG nor Android they are targeting Samsung a manufacturer whos sales volume as increased greatly and realistically pose the largest threat to Apple versus besides HTC. Frankly if anyone is against the tmobile and atat merger under the false guise of reducing competition EVERYONE should be backing samsung......not sure why Google isnt playing its hand more in these proceedings its operating system outside of the falsified design stealing claims is a big part here not Samsung

No one is rooting for Apple's down fall, we're gust happy to see that people are standing up against them. Apple is suing manufacturers that make Android devices in an indirect attack on Google and Android.

Yes there's protecting your patents, but then there's using your broad "cover-everything-under-the-sun" patents that Apple loves to create. The carriers know that the Samsung products are popular and not selling them would severely hamper their business.

I'm rooting for apple's downfall.... McDonald's and GM's too, while we're at it... Let other companies with better business practices and honestly-good products take their places

Actually for me things like threatening a kid and his parents for selling white iPhone conversion kits they bought online from foxconn and were doing it as a school project on entreprenurial enterprises. Or threatening an Austrailian retailer for selling the Galaxy Tab when an injuction hasn't been ordered or a court case settled. These are the disgusting things this disgusting company called Apple does that makes people hate them so.
