The fact samsung is counter suing means they know they infringed, but at the same time it seems both of them were using each others patents without problems so something happened internally that sparked this that we probably will never find out

"Rather than competing in the marketplace, Apple is seeking a competitive edge in the courtroom," Verhoeven said in his closing statement. "(Apple thinks) it's entitled to having a monopoly on a rounded rectangle with a large screen. It's amazing really."[/QUOTE] I know a lot of people are trying to say "WELL SAMSUNG IS JUST AS BAD, THEY'RE SUING NOW TOO!" but it's important to remember that they were the ones under attack, they're just fighting back. I'm not saying Samsung is a beautiful angel guilty of nothing, just that in this case they're just on the defensive. I really wish Apple would start trying to compete with their products rather than their legal team.
