The Apple clock looks better. Also if Apple pays 21m not for technology but merely for design then that harms Samsung's case due to the myriad design thefts separate to the functional and technology related thefts. 21m for a clock design would put ubuqitous rounded corner icons at a value of say 500m

Could Samsung's deal with the Swiss be a defensive measure for their current court case? Meaning, Apple points out licensing deals Apple has made and Samsung says they also have them? I know, that sounds really weak but I'm trying to find an alternative to simply using that clock face in the Galaxy S6.
**** you samsung. I am sick tried hearing about shitty samsung products with shit software and smartphone hardware. I wish to kick the samsung ass out the United States of America.
I haven't travelled on any Swiss Railways yet, but it's only natural to conclude that customers from now on will experience more delays, interrupted service and maybe even a few derailments, since saving a few pennies is their main priority.
I can understand certain people choosing Samsung, such as people on welfare, and people who don't have bank accounts, but there is no excuse for any business to be choosing Samsung. That tells me all that I need to know about that business.
It's like when I walk into a restaurant, I expect them to serve coke, as in coca cola, the real deal. I don't care if they made some deal with Pepsi that saved them money and they don't serve coke. I won't be coming back to that restaurant.
It's the same thing with tablets, I expect to only see iPads, the real deal. I don't care if they got some cheap junk from Samsung instead. They won't be getting my business.
Uh, really? Samsung is doing this to annoy Apple? Not for profits and exposure? OK, whatever. I've always loved the Swiss clock face design and what's even better is that as you go from station to station traveling across Switzerland, you see that all of the clocks in the country are synchronized down to the second. As a Swiss friend replied when I mentioned this to him, "Of course." Let's see if Samsung can do that!
Agreed. Not sure what point this would make to Apple. It's not like they're taking away any real significant revenue. I'm sure this was met with a mild yawn in Cupertino.
Like the old Texaco adage, "You can pay me now or pay me later." The railway company will just be shopping for new phones and tablets sooner then if they had bought Apple, and they won't get squat for their old equipment... so if it was a savings, it was a very thin savings.
Dear Apple, I have an unbelievably great win/win/win/win scenario for you.
WIN 1: You advertise for the world's next Hans Hilfiker to create a new clock design that you can own. The winning designer gets paid one million dollars. This is fantastic PR, and proves you're serious about design and eschewing skeuomorphism.
WIN 2: You donate 9 million dollars to a worthy charity. Which is awesome PR.
WIN 3: My fee for this idea is 1 million dollars. Which you can so totally afford, considering you paid 21 million dollars on an arbitrary swiss clock design.

What if it's not possible at any price right now?
It's all good.
Number 1 doesn’t always stay number 1. Eventually, someone overtakes them.

Sure...the more they sell, the more they have to pay Apple in infringment costs.
Nice try though.
A few years from now, these then probably unpatched and vulnerable devices may present a nasty problem.

You're welcome Apple. You're welcome.
God the determination to find Samsung doing something nefarious to Apple has got pathetic.
The story here is that Samsung have signed a contract with a large organization to provide some IT equipment. That's what electronics companies do.
The lengths to which Samsung will go to deny stealing are pathetic, and your post is a tiny part of that patheticness.

Don't shoot me for it but i find this more usefull
If all we wanted in life was useful, the world would be a dreary place.
Possibly the most desperate attempt to generate news I've seen in years.
So desperate that you had to comment on it!
Switzerland has beautiful scenery. But the people? Cold.
