    How so. Sammy probably just copied and pasted. And didn't compare and contrast like they did with the iPhone.

    Simply copying does not mean "crisis in design".

    I'm not saying that it was, but nobody can positively claim that it wasn’t either. None of us work for Samsung and we can only know for sure what caused a 'crisis in design' by what they've said in public.

    This is what Scamsung does "best," pollute internet forums & comment sections with fake comments targeting Apple & praising Scamsung.

     

    Funniest thing, other than the entire comment, is that the Scamsung employee tried to divert reader attention with the username "Blackberry" lol.

    Since we're on the subject of copying China is developing their own OS, better than either iOS or Android... kinda. Now testing on China Mobile.

    There's no documentation either for or against, but you're the one making the claim for against.

    And you're saying I need to prove my original point, is that correct?

    I didn't think "you know this how?" was a difficult question.

    Why do I need to prove it?

    You don't need to prove anything, and you also don't need to make baseless claims.

    FWIW the Motorola Razr probably caused a crisis in design too. Sammy came up with the Sync clone. Then the Moto Q may have caused yet another. Yup, Sammy rushed out the Blackjack.. It's nothing new nor is it unexpected that they'd find more inspiration in the iPhone. Personally I'm surprised if Apple didn't anticipate it considering past history.

    Yawn....

    You wrote “OK” where it said “Please do not write below this line.” 



    I had no choice.

    If you already knew the iPhone caused a crisis of design at Samsung then why did you make post 77?

    You said none of those phones ever caused a crisis in design? I asked you how did you know that. We're all aware of what was said regarding the iPhone, so where did you read anything regarding any other phone?

    At this point, you're just rambling.

    Call it a day.

    You are aware of the statements that Steve Jobs made the day that the iPhone was introduced? Now, Steve's statements that day may not be entirely accurate, but Apple did anticipate that the iPhone might be copied; hence the large number of patents being mentioned. What's interesting is that Samsung figured out pretty quickly that there was a new smart phone paradigm; most of the others including MS, Blackberry and Nokia were very slow to respond.

    The way the system works is that people make statements on the forums, and then other people find arguments to disprove them. Since you can't disprove the statement of either GTR or jungmark wrt Samsung's legally determined copying elements of the iPhone, the aforementioned "crisis", then what you are doing is speculating, without evidence or facts, that Samsung might have copied on earlier occasions from other phone builders.

     

    Here's another example of speculation:

     

    "Apple couldn't have developed the iPhone as it did without outside help as Apple had no experience with building a phone of any kind."

    "I surmise that Apple had help from advanced being from the future, though it might have been aliens."

     

    I suspect that is what the CEO's of Blackberry really thought of the newly introduced iPhone, but it's speculation as I have no facts to prove it.

    I wish you guys didn't reply to dasanman69 and GatorGuy. No point in putting these guys on Ignore lists if you can still see their comments!

     

    I finally got sick of StuckPaper and threw him into my Ignore list as well.

    "GTR" is another nasty poster here (actually most of the posters here are quite nasty, reasonable posters either left or have been banned).

    This forum pretty much descended into a mean-spirited, elitist, nationalist and racist, we-hate-anything-non-Apple pit.

    It's a mystery why you haven't been banned yet.

    Why would Samsung agree to this settlement? They made tens of billions with the galaxy S line and were fined only little less than1 Billion (final amount still to be determined). It would just be bad business.

    I'm not the one speculating, they are. Just about everyone here has asked another poster for proof on something they've written, therefore the burden of proof falls on them, but since the comment is pro Apple it goes unchallenged by most here, and honor and integrity goes out the door. It's all just faulty logic postulated on imperfect data collection.
