Samsung infringed on Apple design patents, jury rules | The Verge

As the jury slogs through the twenty-page final verdict form in the Apple vs. Samsung trial, it has given its decision on one of the more critical aspects of the case: whether Samsung infringed on Apple's design patents for the look and feel of its devices. The jury needed to decide the issue on four different design patent as they apply to over over a dozen different Samsung devices, and furthermore had to also distinguish between three different corporate entities. In short, it was a nightmare.

The jury has decided that Samsung did infringe with multiple devices.

Jury: Samsung infringed Apple's software patents | The Verge

The first verdicts out of Apple vs. Samsung are in, covering claims 19, 8, and 50 of the so-called '381, '915, and '163 software patents, respectively — those are the patents that cover "bounce back" scrolling functionality, pinch-to-zoom, and tap-to-zoom. Did Samsung infringe, according to the jury?

For claim 19 of '381, the answer is yes for all devices.

For claim 8 of '915, the answer is yes for all but the Ace, Intercept, and Replenish.

For claim 50 of '163, the answer is yes for all but the Captivate, Continuum, Gem, Indulge, Nexus S 4G, Transform, and Vibrant.

On the question of inducement — in other words, did the Korean company force its US divisions to infringe — the jury ruled yes to all devices on '381, yes for all devices but the Replenish on '915, and yes for all devices but the Captivate, Continuum, Gem, Indulge, Nexus S 4G, Transform, and Vibrant on '163.

All told, it's a huge starting win for Apple on a verdict form that totals some 700 questions.

This shows how fucked up the patent system is.


It's fucking over. you can beat up the competition on bullshit software/design patents that already existed before apple made them and beat up competition instead of designing a better product.



The gates of hell have opened.


now we wait for the samsung against apple verdict.



edit:


The jury is corrupt and bribed as fuck, expect riots.

I'm sure Apple will sue you for not using an iPhone.

Pot, meet kettle.

It's pretty obvious to everyone else (except maybe yourself) that you pretty much jerk off to Samsung as well.

I guess it would be too much to ask for you to come at us from a non-hypocritical point of view....

It is getting kinda ridiculous with these companies. Since the smartphone was released in Japan, every other company through the years made a phone. Even my cable provider has one. Apple is starting to lose its once swag it had. I wish we all could go back to Motorola.

It never had swag. It was always about the gimmicks.

Would much rather have 50 Samsung fanboys than one ApplePope. Apple fanboys are blind and biased much more.

Fuck Apple and their overpriced bullshit....Why not make something else to beat them? -__-

[cengizbobengiz]

Not surprised to be honest, that being said I like my iPhone, and used to have an Android before the iPhone and hated it... And everyone is biased, so it is not fair to say that iPhone fanboys are biased as an argument; I have seen plenty of bias towards other companies on here.

Not necessarily.

Although I agree that ApplePope is blind and completely biased. However, so is Ps360 for the most part.

Apple's headquarters is a mere 16 kilomtres from the courthouse, and jurors were picked from the heart of Silicon Valley where Apple's late founder Steve Jobs is a revered technological pioneer.

SEEMS LEGIT

Of course there's bias towards plenty of companies (specially here, where the Sony fanboys gather), but Apple ones tend to be more stupid.

Do you expect any less from apple?

PS360 is fun bias where ApplePope is Jackie Chan's "WTF" bias. Debating with PS360 about something will not leaving you scratching your head. Where you have other people that will want you to commit cranial suicide.
