> [@boardjnky4](#): > > We’ll see. Admittedly, I don’t know a whole lot about this stuff. However, Apple got the Galaxy Nexus pulled from the Google Play site until google fixed some shit (actually they pulled functionality). I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility for Apple to get a device pulled temporarily while a deal is worked out. Patents dealing with functionality (unified search in the case of the Nexus) and patents dealing with standards like LTE and 3G that are specifically filed as FRAND patents are very different beasts. ---

I hope Apple has enough legal cash in the bank to slap these idiots: > **[Maker of Chinese iPhone 5 knockoff vows to put Apple in its place \[video\]](http://bgr.com/2012/09/11/goophone-i5-propaganda-video-apple-lawsuit-threatened/)** > > The Goophone I5 isn’t just a cheap iPhone 5 knockoff — it’s also a matter of national pride in China. In a fan video posted on the Goophone’s official forums, a young Chinese Goop… “We blatantly copied your years of design and refinement and got a hacked product to market a couple of weeks before you and now we’re going to act like assholes!” On behalf of everyone who’s had their shit knocked off by a Chinese imitator I’d like to see these idiots slapped down. ---

^ If anyone has the power to do it in a Chinese court it’s Apple. A whole lot of money flows into China from Apple’s Foxconn contract. ---

China is smarter than that and almost always sides with the company based in their country. In the long run it’s better for their economy. ---

CNET reports that Samsung’s allegations revolve around jury foreman Velvin Hogan, who said in interviews after the trial that he had used his expertise in patents to guide his fellow jurors’ decisions on what constituted prior art in intellectual property cases. Hogan had been instructed before the trial to make decisions based solely on the law as instructed “and not based on your understanding of the law based on your own cases.”_ ---

Who cares what he was instructed to do? The whole point of trial by jury is to let a group of people with their own brains judge the case. Fun fact: It is a juror’s legal obligation to judge both the law and the case, though they are instructed to be good little drones before the case starts. ---
