[citation][nom]ericburnby[/nom]Posturing by Samsung to try and make them look like the good guys.[/citation]
Samsung is not willing to settle, they only aggree to talk. They're just not being totally negative and stupid.
[citation][nom]ericburnby[/nom]It was Apple who approached Samsung. Twice, the second being a personal visit from Jobs. As if that weren;t enough Google also warned Samsung about copying Apple.[/citation]
So, what you're actually saying, is that S. Jobs himself visited Samsung to deliver his "thermonuclear" threat personally. It makes sense, because face to face and behind closed doors, you can bring your true self out, no need to hide from the public as you do any other day. For a minute, I thought you ment S. Jobs went there to settle.
And, as you imply, Samsung had to stop making phones because of this visit. Why is that?
a) So Apple can have their way (read: monopoly) and sell more phones?
b) Because Apple invented round edges?
c) Because Apple wants Android to disappear, but would not go directly against its maker?
d) Because Samsung is the world's no 1 handset maker?
e) Because the patet system sucks?
Correct answer: All of the above.
[citation][nom]ericburnby[/nom]BUt you idiots don;t want to listen to facts and will continue to assume Apple is evel. I bet you'r teh same people who used to hate Microsoft years ago or even IBM before them (if any of you children are old enough to remember).[/citation]
Woooow! Seriously, I don't think you're in a position to judge, or call anyone an idiot. Facts? Better get your own facts straight, you are more biased than Foreman has been. By the way, who might the people that hated Microsoft or even IBM before that, be? Let me guess... people like you?
You should post at some other place, where there are lots of fanboys who share your views and hatred.
