Competition is what drives companies to perfect their products and to make them affordable. While I really appreciate the quality of Apple devices and have bought a few throughout my lifetime, I hate to see them trying to stop any other company from competing against them simply because the product looks like one of theirs.
Go buy one of those cheap Chinese copies of the phone of your choice.
So your reading comprehension is no better than Googleguy's. We already knew that - you didn't need to prove it.
If name-calling and insults are all you have left to turn to, why bother to even respond then? In case you forget how you wanted others to conduct themselves when replying to you, your request is still in my sig. It's a two-way street sir.
If you'd rather not attract so much negative feedback when you make errors (seems a bit more frequent lately) try not to be so arrogant and belligerant with the other members here. We can all respectfully disagree and get on with things rather than suffer the playground antics that your replies often rely on and encourage others to use in retaliation. It certainly discourages new members from posting anything at all in fear of being ridiculed for anything not perfectly adhering to your view of what the truth should be.
I've no doubt you're a smart guy but it doesn't show when all you can think to say is "I know you are but what am I" .

Please.
There's plenty of "competition" in the form of hundreds of Android-powered devices. You've got a lot to choose from.
Who wants to bet that since this whole thing started, the legal fees paid by both sides was greater than the potential profits on the sales of the Galaxy Nexus for the same period of time?
As FOSS patents pointed out, I wonder if the fact Google made an announcement that a softwarepatch would be ready "in days" is going to hurt them. If they can fix it that easily, then how can they claim damages by a ban?
Perhaps Google should have kept their mouths shut about the fix until after they found out it their appeal to get the ban lifted would pass.

I hope Apple makes the next iPhone $ 2799 so we'd have less people using them, which in turn would have less people babbling on Apple forums.

I doubt if that's true, but even if it is, it's irrelevant. Apple's not interested in the short term gains or expenses - they're in it for the long haul. Their goal is to get people to stop making blatant copies of their products.
Look at the Galaxy Tab and compare it to the original iPad. Even Samsung's attorneys couldn't tell the difference.
Now, compare the Galaxy SIII to the iPhone 4S. Very different appearance.
If the SIII is any indication, maybe companies are starting to get the message that they should develop their own designs rather than simply copying Apple.

I've no doubt you're a smart guy but it doesn't show when all you can think to say is "I know you are but what am I" .
And, yet, you fail to address the fact that you both were misquoting me and I was simply pointing that fact out.
Sorry, googleguy, but you're not in any position to accuse anyone of anything. Other than jerrytroll, it is widely recognized that you're a troll who rarely has anything of value to add.
Samsung is getting their just due. Although they are changing their form factor so they aren't such a blatant ripp off of apple , there still its the glaring problem of their dumb(android smart)phones being junk.... as all of android is

OK, since you apparently can't comprehend simple English.
What I said is that by its actions, the Appeals court indicated that the injunction was warranted but that they were sending it back to Koh so she could issue the injunction and that if she didn't so so, they might do so.
YOU and googleguy said that I claimed that the Appeals Court ordered her to issue an injunction.
Ask your 2nd grade teacher to explain the difference in those statements.

That's the "competition" you are wanting.

Apple??
LOL with the money they make every quarter they could sustain these legal battles indefinitely. It's only "expensive" for the small fry.
And more power to Apple if they feel they have a valid dispute. That's what the courts are there for. And by the looks of it they're doing their job.
