A Little More Pocket Change For The Folks In Cupertino
-
A jury has found that Samsung violated Apple's patents on the iPhone and iPad and awarded Apple $1.05 billion. That's huge, although not as huge as Apple was asking for. The jury bought that Samsung willfully copied Apple's designs, and did it in about 22 hours of deliberation, which isn't much. The real issue from my perspective is what can and can't be patented, and whether a grid of icons on a screen or a finger swipe should be subject to patenting in the first place.
