• VIA Seeks US Ban of iPhone, iPad Over Patent Infringements
    89 replies, posted
[QUOTE]Taiwan-based low-power computing technology company VIA sought a sales ban of Apple's iPhone and iPad, for what it alleges to be patent infringements of its microprocessor intellectual property. VIA sought a jury trial along with a sales ban on Apple products containing the inventions in the U.S., according to a complaint filed yesterday in federal court in Wilmington, Delaware. In its complaint VIA says “The products at issue generally concern microprocessors included in a variety of electronic products such as certain smartphones, tablet computers, portable media players and other computing devices.” This specifically impinges upon Apple's cash-cow products, the iPhone and iPad, and it isn't coming at a good time because Apple, according to market analyst Gartner Inc., will dominate tablet sales this holiday season. The case is Via Technologies v. Apple Inc. (AAPL), U.S. District Court, District of Delaware (Wilmington).[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.techpowerup.com/152494/VIA-Seeks-US-Ban-of-iPhone-iPad-Over-Patent-Infringements.html[/url] Who's next?
There is a god.
Ha.
DO IT WE NEED PEOPLE TO LEAVE THE APPLE BUBBLE
Apple will buy the jury out
I am so happy when people sue apple hoping to destroy its business and I get so upset when apple sues other people, even though they both do the exact same thing my hatred for apple runs so deep that I must cheer for joy over the internet when people sue apple because I am a huge nerd and I HATE that other people like their products, BURN IN HELL APPLE!!!!
Anything that nonviolently causes problems for Apple I'm happy about.
Bahahaha good luck with that. I don't like apple so much but I have an iPhone because I got it for a rather low price (yay promos) and it's a good functional piece of equipment. [editline]23rd September 2011[/editline] I wouldn't have taken if it was full priced though, shit's expensive.
Yay, I have many VIA products and therefor support them and this ban.
Maybe VIA and Samsung will team up and get Apple's patents on black rectangles with curved corners revoked. [editline]23rd September 2011[/editline] Actually wait a second. Samsung makes the microprocessors for the iPhones. So why wouldn't VIA also target the Samsung phones using the Hummigbird and the Exynos?

[QUOTE=thisispain;32436041]people who roll their eyes and sneer over frivolous unimportant stuff sound familiar to anyone?[/QUOTE] I was talking about the whole 'mainstream' sterotype, which seems to be the only part most people pick up on. Apple is sort of mainstream these days.
It is but to be honest so far I really like the iPhone.

[QUOTE=Tigster;32436225]opinion[/QUOTE] Exactly, it's all just peoples opinions. Let's just be fucking content with the phones we own and not worry about what other people think about it. At the same time we should let other people be content with their purchases. If they're happy then just let them be happy with it. [editline]23rd September 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=doonbugie2;32436236]Derp?[/QUOTE] Jesus. Just stop.

The entire point of the ability to form opinions is that you can have you own ideals that don't have to make sense to others. So if it's flawed to you I honestly couldn't care less, because even without that word the point stands that you need to stop with the bad posting.

What goes around, comes around apple. I hope you don't bruise so easily...
I hate frivolous lawsuits. Unless they're anti-Apple because I also hate Apple.
I'm pretty sure Apple has enough money to crush these people in court.
I wish I was on the jury. I need a new car.
