The Galaxy S is clearly an iphone 3GS copy and Touchwiz is clearly influenced shall we say by IOS, and i am obviously not the only one who thinks so. Its just my opinion on your statement about dirty tactics by Apple. Samsung make great phones and tablets....ive had a Galaxy Tab an a Galaxy S & S2.....
I don't see any resemblance between the iphone 3GS and the galaxy S having had both in the past. If you going to nitpick like then there are so many touch screen smartphones on the market from almost all manufacturers that look similar.
What's clear in mind mind that designs between the two are not that similar and run on a completely different OS and again any similarity's are purely coincidental. The same with the Galaxy Tab nothing like the ipad apart from the tablet PC form factor which again many tablet PC's share.

lets not forget though, that Apple can make all the claims they like against patent infringement, but it takes a special patent court to agree they have a case. Indeed now 2 separate patent courts have done so and this afternoon I wouldn't be surprised if a 3rd also makes the same decision.

I do see a lot of resemblance between the two devices but is that not sharing a form factor?

Then i suggest you open your eyes and take a good look .....as i said im not the only one who thinks this is the case, people far more important than me have concluded that they are very similar. Plagiarism i think is the word. And your right they are running completely different OS's, until Samsung make them look very, very closely related that is

Told you i've had both phones and more than a few iphones and i don't still don't think there is any resemblance apart from the fact that both are touch screen smartphones of which there are many that look similar and i don't see Apple suing them.
Lets not forget here that Apple are quite big liars, they claim to have invented everything from Video Calling to the App Store and Multi-Touch and steal copyrighted names like iCloud which do not belong to them and was never their ideas. I really hope that these things are brought up in court over these patent disputes.
People need to wake up and realise that Apple are not whiter than white and what people think they are.

Ivd had both phones also....you seem to be taking this personally, its all a matter of opinion.....not that mine or yours is of any consequence. The people that matter have decided that they are similar enough and thats the end of it.
Like i said dont take it so personally you'll give yourself an ulcer

erm i've not taken it personally at all
Was just stating the facts that Apple are not exactly in the right on this when they themselves have stolen many ideas from others and have claimed it to be there own and now that others have taken some inspiration from them they are getting all hot and bothered about it. Its market competition and as long no one stealing brand names and software i don't see a problem and many companies for centuries have taken inspiration from each other and still do today its the nature of the game.Apple need to get over it and stop being so greedy and childish because that's exactly what they are doing.

i'm sure an investigation into apple themselves would reveal a less than honest company...what goes around comes around...apple will get whats coming to them...
