    I agree, that in terms of programming, a tap is a zero length swipe although explaining this concept to non-programmers is likely challenging.

    I'd flip that. I'd say a swipe is a multipoint tap or an active tap.

    Wow this is big, but arn't all Android phones infringing the same patents? Why just this one phone being singled out?

    You establish a precedent first, then you use it to get the rest taken care of.
    Right. Their attitude is get someone on the board of another company and rip off all the IP you can.

    Ooh, now you're gonna get all the crap about how

    Then you have to define what "active" is…

    So JellyBean with butter will finally stop the inherent Android lag, wasn't it Ice Cream Sandwich that was going to do that?

    Wasn't Gingerbread the answer to the lag or was that eclair?

    you just wait until lubricated friedpotato runs on the next generation andrioidy phone.

    it will show you ...!

    If so, then a point is also a zero-length and zero-height cube.  Or sphere.  Or ...

    Actually, no it is a rip off of MobileNotifier, a Cydia application for jailbroken iPhones. Apple hired the developer.

    I wonder if the new Galaxy S III will be banned as well.  That would give Samsung/Google a big wedgie !!

    What a wonderful life I have. I can't wait for Apple to take less than .5% of their huge amount of cash and screw Google and Samsung until they scream for mercy and bow down to the real electronics company.

    My mistake. Yes, of course, it's a one dimensional object.

    The point is that a line has one dimension and extends in both directions to infinity. A point has zero dimensions. A point can not be a line any more than a line can be a cube.

    You are confusing inventive with innovative.  Apple was not inventive with Siri, but they are very innovative.  The difference is innovation is not about invention, it is about the ability to make an invention ubiquitous through some extra non-inventive twists.  


     


    So yes, picking the correct check to write is a key part of innovation.

    Well your PhD in "Science" sure is lacking in even basic mathematical rigor.  I don't even need to start discussing projections to get to that point (every pun intended).


     


    Either you are a PhD in a soft science that barely recognizes the term mathematics (thinking stats is all you need to know), you got the degree out of a mill printer, or you are just flat out making crap up. Take any math from multivariable calculus on and it is impossible to make any statements like you just did, your mind would crawl itself into a singularity before allowing those thoughts to get out.

    Uh huh. And you're some sort of uber super genius who has never made a mistake.

    Sorry, but when did chemistry become a 'soft science'?

    It's never relevant. It's like posting a picture of a cloud that looks like Snoopy and claiming Charles Schulz stole the idea from mother nature. The fact is LCDs are flat, they have borders, these borders are usually black. You don't comprehend or are purposely trolling — not sure which is more pathetic — when you post a stupid pic from one angle of common technology. Funny how you never post any other aspect or detail about the device nor have ever noted that all the features you think Apple stole from Samsung existed long before that.

    Of course it is, it looks like a iPad but came out before the iPad, period.

    not that it would make any difference, but feel free to donate all your shares of Apple to the Apple Legal Defense fund.

    I dont think his trying to say that Apple stole the design from Samsung. Merely that Samsung did have devices with that form factor before the iPad came out. Let's hope Apple doesnt get caught in a lie again like they did in Germany.
