Want some numerical context to last night's revelation that Apple is suing Samsung Electronics for copying the iPhone and iPad? How does $5.7 billion sound? That's how much Apple spent on buying up parts from Samsung last year, according to the AFP, which cites the Cupertino company as Samsung's second-biggest client after Sony. Given the breadth of Samsung's component manufacturing, these expenditures can and probably do span everything from flash storage and RAM to processing chips to displays. What's fascinating here -- and illustrative of the psychopathic nature of corporations -- is that in spite of this massive interdependency, Apple's lodged a broadly worded patent assault on a major prong of Samsung's business (smartphones and tablets) and now Samsung's been quoted as saying it has "no choice but [to] respond strongly." A company official has apparently expressed the belief that Apple may be infringing on some of Samsung's wireless patents, which means we can probably look forward to another fat batch of papers being submitted to the Northern District of California court. Lovely.
Samsung is disgusting. If Apple made a friggin refrigerator, they would have copied that as well.
Vrlo interesantan tekst, i slike!
a jel apple dobija sve te sudske procese u svoju korist ? ako da - onda se po*erem u americki pravosudni sistem, za kojisam do skoro bio ubedjen da je najbolji. covece, ovo sa "app store" zvuci kao da Gizmor registruje prodavnicu - "mesara", i ubuduce sve ostale mesare moraju da se dovijaju i da se nazovu - "prodavnica ispresavijanog vola i svinje" i slicno :S:
Ma nije samo iPhone i iPad, kopiraju sve zivo u poslednje vreme bez ikave maske, kazu da cak i ambalazu proizvoda, punjace... sto je stvarno smesno, a znamo svi da su cak povukli iz proizvodnje najvljen tablet kada su videli kako izgleda iPad2
Samsung se stvarno trudi da im sve lici na apple i ne znam sta je apple cekao do sada?
