By deciding that Samsung violated Apple patents, does this create a situation where Samsung, Motorola & other manufacturers say " no thanks"?
This is what Apple wanted, a possible monopoly in the cell phone business. But be careful what you wish for. There is no way one company can make that many phones. That's why Android is on so many different devices.
Jurors are saying it wasn't based on it being Apple. I call baloney on that. The trial probably shouldn't have been held in San Jose. The courtroom in downtown SJ is less than 10 miles from Apple headquarters. You telling me there wasn't a bias?
And the foreman owns patents. So yes, he has experience & understands the law. But he also is thinking about his own position. And I'm guessing these Apple fanboys, err jurors didn't even pay attention to Samsung's own suit against Apple. Hey, they're foreigners. We don't have to pay attention to them.
So in the next couple of years, when everything is a feature (AKA dumb) phone, except for the iPhone, & version 6 costs 1 grand, plus a $100 required data plan, you can thank the jury.
