A top Samsung executive says the company will take a bolder stance in its patent battle with smartphone and tablet rival Apple, which Samsung claims has been "free riding" on its patented wireless technologies.

Didn't see anything about this in the news section.
But I'm glad to see that Samsung isn't going to take this patent shenanigans laying down.

Looks like what comes around goes around for Apple. First HTC, then the possible ban from US, and now this.

 

[Tunechi]

They should start claiming body parts to show they mean business

 

[Segovax]

I'm going to get a patent for human legs and bipedal motion. You will all have to pay me royalties soon. Or crabwalk everywhere.

 

[mbudden]

Paragraphs 8-10 sound pretty serious.

And here we go.

Apple has been trying to be the bully lately. It seems with recent lawsuits against them that everyone is tired of it and is going to stick it to them.

 

[HeWhoDared]

I'm losing more and more respect for Apple. I love my iPhone 4, but man.. part of me wants to sell it and get an android

 

[ahmadtahir]

Last I heard, VIA also was set to ban iPxxx products in US..... What goes around comes back around................ woohooooo......

My patent on crabwalking is now being filed.

"Samsung says such patents cover key functions including allowing a mobile phone user to speak on the phone and receive an e-mail at the same time."

This whole "war" is utter nonsense, these patents are nonsense, and the patent system in its current state is utterly embarrassing.

And I already patented hopping, skipping, walking on hands, hand walking (yes they're different), and wheelchairs.

On topic I really hope Samsung gets some sweet revenge on Apple. A ban on US sales would be like the equivalent of heaven.

The thing is that the giants were letting other giants use their patents without caring but then apple started attacking people. I just don't understand their motives, its obviously gonna backfire.

I've been just waiting for this to happen. I've mentioned in several threads around OCN. It was just a matter of time for Samsung to turn around and man handle them. They have far more resources than Apple, Samsung is also a massive company for both retail and oem. They have far more weight than Apple in every single aspect of business.

Apple was just begging for it, and now they will get it with no lube. Samsung isn't the only one now going after Apple either.

Apple was losing market share. Fast. What better way to slow it than ban your competitors products in certain countries?

Of course, it's not going according to plan

all of these patents infringe on my patent of using the mind to manipulate body parts for forward, backward, upward and sideways motion...

time to stop all you freewheelers on my patents, which were filed some time ago...

Oh and my names Adam, perhaps you've read about my wife Eve and I in a little book

 

[TheSprunk]

Apple: "Samsungs are shaped and colored like ours!"
Samsung: "We build the key components of Apple's products and hold the patents to their core purpose and functionality. "

What is apple thinking?

 

[Lovidore]

This put a smile on my face. If you keep poking and prodding the wasp nest, eventually you're going to be assaulted with spoonful of rape in your behind. Apple's legal department was just too blind and stupid to see it.

But with the same respect, I hope Samsung doesn't overextend and start toying with Apple. Make your point so they don't mess with you again, but don't seek to destroy them because that means you're becoming the very thing that you hate.
