Clearly you are not familiar with the OP. They are an Apple fanatic and will regularly Troll pretty much every thread in here.

He wasn't discussing WP, he was discussing the troll reactions of a bunch of nobodies at Microsoft to an Apple v Samsung/Android courtcase and using loaded phrases such as "Samsung copycat verdict".

You're right - I don't track individual's posts across threads. I am sorry he/she annoys you. However, in my opinion the thread was no more trolling than many other threads about the competition among iOS, Android, WP and BB. We're all partisan one way or the other.

Also, it seem to me that reasonable summary of willful patent infringement is 'copycat'. What else would you call it? 'Innovation'? [Sorry couldn't resist. FWIW I like Samsung's products. I do think they innovate, but more so in electronics than software. On this occasion they got caught red-handed flagrantly violating the law.]


Let us talk when this complaint is successful. ;)

You'd think you iphanz would have learned that by now Apple does nothing but copy. They haven't had an original idea in years. Example:

iMessenger - Stolen from RIM
Notification Center - Stolen from Google
Notification banners - stolen from Google
Split Keyboard on a mobile device - Stolen from Google
Open aps from the lock screen - stolen from google
Wireless syncing with iTunes - stolen from Cydia developer Greg Hughes. Apple even stole his icon.
Camera unlock feature from lock screen - stolen directly from ics.

App store - Ubuntu
