Oh, you mean "slight refinements" of the dropdown list that Apple
didn't invent?
So what. Should Samsung be able to patent the 4.2" screen size and then
patent the 4.3" screen size and then patent the 4.4" screen size?
(And on and on, until there aren't any sizes available.)
Apple is a patent troll. They spend years trying to get "trivial"
"improvement" patents approved on other people's ideas, like they did
on this one.
This patent was originally rejected for "obviousness". But Apple
knows how to game the system, they just keep resubmitting patents until they
find a sucker to eventually approve it.
Then like any other patent troll, they sue, sue, sue.
In the meantime Samsung continues to out innovate them and outsell them, and
it's only getting worse for the patent trolls at Apple. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
