Completely Agree. Just because it uses the same parts dose'nt mean that it has the same content.

Get on with time Apple!

Firefox didn't sue you for adding tabs in safari so what makes you think you can sue others for an "interface"...

You can never "own" a technology.. people WILL take ideas and develop more... they should know that...

I'd have to see the patents first to form an actual opinion, but at the moment I really don't care enough to look up the suit and then the patents, heh. Hopefully Wired or someone will break it down.

Assuming the patents are on their side, then they have every legal right to sue. Don't think it's right, but hey... what do you expect from corporations?

They have the right to file a suit whether or not the suit has merit, but that would probably mean sanctions for their lawyer...but that's neither here nor there.

The problem with patents is that they can be overly vague and broad. BT claimed to have patented hyperlinks, for fuck's sake.

More Apple legal case..

It annoys me to see that Apple (who chose an ordinary fruit as company name) wants to claim a letter (one letter "i" out of the 26 alphabet) and stop everyone from using it!
