I really thought you were kidding.
What do you want me to say? We all see the phones with our eyes. When Samsung made the phone I currently own (the T119), did anyone say they copied because they had a Call and a Hang Up button, and a back button like most phones of its time? No, they didn't. Even if they did, I don't remember hearing of the consequences we hear about here (1b$ in fees).
As for swipes and gestures, none of that is something a company can appropriate to themselves. It's an integral part of a touchscreen experience, these gesture and swipe concepts have existed since the beginnings of the tablet era 1 a decade ago, as well as the smart devices that existed pre iphone (compaq Q et al.).
I really don't want to discuss this it's been talked about ad nauseam. In my humble opinion, Apple had no right to sue Samsung over something they don't own, and they got what they deserved.
I appreciate the guilt trip, because I do need to post with quality and lead by example, but to be fair you and MBP both called me deluded, so... how conducive to thought is a comment like that? (Just take it with a grain of salt)
