yes, Samsung copied the Iphone - but it's a fucking cellphone, OMFG the Galaxy has rounded corners and icons with rounded corners, for the rest of time Apple is the only cellphone that can have rounded corners!

I haven't followed the case at all so maybe there's a lot more to it but there should never be a patent on anything like that - who was the first cereal company to put cereal in a square box with an illustration on the front? They need to sue all the other cereal manufacturers, they were first to have a square cornered cardboard box with an illustration on the front.

patent laws are ridiculous.
