Apple vs. Samsung Verdict Is In!
 

And Samsung is getting bent over!

Live blogging of the verdict: http://live.theverge.com/apple-samsung-verdict-live/

Congrats to the winners!

Apple is awarded 1 billion, 51 million 855 thousand dollars in damages. Time for Samsung's appeal.

wow...............

I am not sure a Jury is smart enough to deside this.

Posting this from my Samsung with infringing icons with rounded corners and a fixed row of icons at the bottom.

Samsung is now outselling iPhones. You don't have to do it first, you just have to do it better.

ouch poor samsung

hmm...i doubt this is over

:thumbsup

I predict South Korea will go to war over this.

Poor apple's feeling are hurt that Samsung made a phone they can't compete with.

Just like Microsoft, Samsung has never had an original idea always stealing from somebody else.

Microsoft will have some killer phones in a year or two, and they have all the patents.

This message was written from my Samsung, Galaxy with a keyboard. :) using a superior OS named Android.

And Apple's original idea has been...?

First to steal the Xerox Star user interface for the Mac. :thumbsup

Turnover wise Samsung pulls in about 1 billion every 2.5 days so they are probably not too worried about the actual $ involved, the main issue appears to be if they can continue to sell their products.

another good day to be an AAPL stock owner. Up 11.73‎ in after hours.

Its all over for Samsung. "Willful" patent infringement will bring about devastating injunctions and bans of their products.

Yes this is huge news for Apple. Stock will be over $700 a share on Monday.

This is so ridiculous I am making it my sig line now. Apple is one of the biggest innovators in the digital era, if not the biggest.

Kind of blows that as a consumer I'm forced to use their possibly inferior products now because of devices they made years ago that are now obsolete make it difficult for Apple competitors to serve my needs.

Everything i have of Samsung is shit

I'm confused...what?

WTO will have to rule on this.

There are conflicting Korean and US verdicts now.

Jobs stole all the Apple ideas from others.

No way - he was a creative genius.

Fuck Apple :321GFY

He was a douchebag

Jobs was a bad father, a bad boss and a bad human being.

Agreed 100% - but he was a genius.

Jobs was an asshole. But a good seller and promoter.

They had great idea's and came out with great products, to bad they limited them to apple's crap os...

US court.
US judge.
US jury.
US company vs South Korean company.
NO surprise.

Very bad news for the consumer whether you buy apple or their competitors phones or tablets.

after all, this is quite a positive news for we the consumers...because, this kind of attitude will make the products better and cheap....

Not just a US court but one 10 miles from apples hq. With jurors from silicone valley.
