    Samsung to sue Apple over iPhone 5

    "Samsung Electronics will sue Apple over its release of the iPhone 5 for infringing on its fourth-generation (4G) long-term evolution (LTE) connectivity patents, according to industry sources, Monday.

    It’s true that Samsung Electronics has decided to take immediate legal action against the Cupertino-based Apple. Countries in Europe and even the United States ? Apple’s home-turf ? are our primary targets,’’ said an industry source."

    I'm at the point that I hope, REALLY hope, that Apple gets prison raped in every litigation that comes their way. They thoroughly deserve it.
    Power is something that should be given to those who need it to serve and withheld from those who seek it to rule.

    Indeed, Apple is going to be sorry now. (This is a much more valid patent than their stupid rounded corners and scroll bars and will have merit not only in the U.S.)

    Cool
    My life is slipping away
    I'm aging every day
    But even when I'm grey
    I'll still be grey my way

    I read this morning that it costs $8 to make each iPhone at its Chinese factory. Probably, Apple needs to change its name to AppleSoft.
