Apple wins

Legal And just like that, within a matter of days, the jury has reached a verdict in Apple vs. Samsung. The basic gist is simple: Apple's software patents are valid, and many Samsung devices infringe upon them. Apple's iPhone 3G trade dress is valid, and Samsung's Galaxy S line infringes, but other devices did not. Samsung did not infringe Apple's iPad design patent. Apple did not infringe any of Samsung's patents. Apple is awarded a little over $1 billion in damages. Competition lost today, and developers in the United States should really start to get worried - software patents got validated big time today.

Yeah because there are so many stores that look exactly like that. Please, your bias is really showing.

Get your fact right! Apple is copying Linux for appstore (and none linux folks felt unhappy about that). Too green to comment, eh? Do you think all universe centered in Apple? Meh!
