Absurd

great - must have been a pretty strong case for them to reach that conclusion in only 22 hours

My Son predicted this decision, yeah he does IT, he thought any other conclusion would be Wrong

Amazing that they could find 9 peers of Samsung to sit in a jury.
In my country we use trained and experienced professionals to judge cases, not random people, but to each his own..

As if Apple isn't making enough money by ripping everyone else off with their outdated technology. It is pathetic.

What American isn't patriotic? Nobody is surprised by the outcome, but seriously... "pinch to zoom" ? software and business method patents need to die. I've been able to use my mouse to re-size photos on my screen for decades, there is simply *no* inventive step needed to continue that paradigm when a mouse is replaced by fingertips - it's absolutely blazing obvious to anyone who's ever re-sized a window before...

So what is happening to ALL the other cases between these two companies. It would be better for Samsung just to buy a 51% stake in Apple.
Anyway a billion dollars to the likes of Samsung is like a $100 bill to you and me.
Good Luck Samsung with your other cases and ask for double what you paid back.

So an American court rules to Apples favour and a South Corean one rules to Samsungs favour. Seems like Lady Justitia doesn't have a very effective blindfold but I suppose noone is very surprised. The interesting question though is whether Samsung has to cease selling their smartphoneproducts in US or not.

This case was far too complex and technical for a jury to decide on.
Reaching a decision in only 22 hours just proves they had no idea what they were doing.
It would take weeks for a technical expert to read and understand all the documents and evidence.
But this was in the good ol' USA, so of course they ruled in favour of Apple, like a good ol' American lynch mob.

If Samsung cannot sell smartphone products in US anymore, than the Americans could buy it from the internet. It will be a very good business for some country: the money will then goes to the other country. Interesting...
