I don't know where you come from. I am from Sweden and I do not see them as a
great imitator rather a great initiator, but that might be because their main
business is not making consumer devices, which is the only devices that the
general public know or care about.

From the article it seems that Samsung has an excellent strategy for dealing
with Apple's phony patents: (1) to have legions of engineers repeatedly
redesigning around any alleged "infringements" at a faster rate than
"infringements" can be claimed and prosecuted and (2) to continuously
introduce more and more new and better phones to the market in order to win the
hearts and minds of the consumer thus gaining market share.
I consider Apple to be more of a marketing company than an engineering one.
They seem to specialize in copying other people's ideas, re-branding them,
marketing them very well and then attempting to use legal tactics to hinder
competition for as long as possible. This applies to the copying of the the
Xerox PARC all the way through the present day. Just because you were the first
to market something well, does not mean that you invented it.
If Samsung keeps coming out with more and more phones, tablets and other
products with different size screens and other features, i don't know how Apple
will be able to keep up. Until somebody invents a new idea, Apple will not be
able to copy it.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
