Any idea on how a patent that was approved can be invalid? I am clueless on this stuff.
The US patent office is actually the laughing stock of the world, with all those crappy and trolling software "patents" granted for money. Apple is somewhat a specialist of these UI "patents", greedily granted in the US but mostly rejected throughout the civilized world.
As far as I remember in this judiciary war Nokia has patents over real telephony inventions (over wireless data, speech coding, encryption, etc), Apple has patents like an UI method to zoom an image... Hmm.

So ironic that Apple is making so much money from telephony, while Nokia has forgotten how to.
It is almost as if consumers value *software* more than all that telephone hardware!

Not really, it just shows that a small percentage of people are willing to pay a lot of money for a device
