velu Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 I can name multiple products in the last 7-8 years which haven't worked. Most people who don't understand software & software systems make the same statements as you do. both him and sabby are just trolling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 This is the store btw, for which it was granted the patent. These design patents are different from other patents we keep hearing about. i know just see my comment it was tongue in cheek but yes we have seen shapes getting patented and apple trying to get injunction based on that can you really say people only bought those devices because of shape ? i mean full computer like device with different os ,ecosystem was bought for shape ?

I think you're missing the point about shape related patents. A design patent by itself can't guarantee you against litigation. So, even if you make that shape for your own product it isn't acceptable in court that you violated Apple's design patent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got this backwards. Samsung can still use the slide to unlock feature without getting sued or paying Apple any royalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 No' date=' it wasn't just about shape.[/quote'] there were other things like slide to unlock but those things were main basis and samsung just paid fine and are allowed to sell them but they did try to stop them but obviously they were not able to prove it was only reason phone were sold so they did not win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crookbond Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 is this after fighting it out in court and wasting millions or before ? From the moment, slide to unlock patent was invented or even before. That's now how patent system works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
