The GS2 does not look similar. The home button is different shape for a start off and the body is thinner with no sides looking the same or the back. As for a screen looking the same now that's going too far.

I just don't get the rectangular shape bull shit. Nearly all touch screen phones have a rectangular shape with a home button. I cannot believe a court judge passed that.
hmm. No you know that NOT to be fully true.
WinCE devices: HP Jornada, Sharp, etc.
WinMobile 6: Compaq iPaq (no center home button)
WinMobile 6.5: SE Xperia X1 and X2, HP iPaq series (plenty models), Samsung qwerty models, Motorola Q9h/m, etc.
yes all had simple home buttons but non used for multitasking, that I'm aware of, nor used for voice input, nor too similar in design. put aside the hate for Apple and re-read all details of patents argued, statements made by both and then decide.

Apple inventions:
Glass starcase
FireWire (400/800)
ThunderBolt (in partnership with Intel, yes they did, or at least improved networking through TB)
Aluminum unibody PCs (not sure of a patent on this).
H.264 Codec,
1979 - Introduces first printer, the Silentype
Notably, Apple has been sued for:
1999 - Sued over use of OS 9 name
http://news.cnet.com/Software[....]9-name/2100-1001_3-230627.html
1989 - Sued by the Beatles' Apple Corps over music.
1989 - Sued by Xerox over GUI.
2003 - Tibco sues Apple over trademark.
http://news.cnet.com/Tibco-su[....]emark/2100-1035_3-5069154.html
Oh and to clarify ANY potential common misconceptions about the GUI theft from Xerox PARC or about HOW both company's met, I submit exhibit A.
2005 - Raskin dies at 61

Raskin, who named the Macintosh after his favorite fruit, joined Apple in January 1978 as employee No. 31. The Macintosh was launched in 1984, but Raskin left Apple in 1982 amid a well-documented dispute with Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.
Raskin was an assistant professor at the University of California, San Diego, and a visiting scholar at the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in the 1970s when he first visited Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center, or PARC. (Apple is often accused of copying Xerox's graphical user interface--GUI--into the Macintosh operating system).
"When PARC was in its first few years I was often a visiting academic there, taking part in discussions and viewing with delight some of the developments going on there; I trust that people there also took pleasure in finding in me someone who was already on much the same user-interface wavelength," Raskin later wrote. "I didn't have to be sold on the idea that UI and graphics were of primary importance to the future of computing."
Raskin said he told Jobs and Steve Wozniak, Apple's other co-founder, about what he had seen at Xerox the first time he met them in their garage in 1976, but that he stopped visiting Xerox when he went to work for Apple "to avoid any possible conflicts of interest."

Patents awarded to Steve Jobs.

somone joked about the keyboard ... take a look at the source above.

28 D633,498 Keyboard
32 D633,093 Keyboard
55 D625,310 Keyboard

90 D616,886 Keyboard
13 2D604,736 Keyboard
133 D604,300 Keyboard

That is just a taste of why Gates invested in Apple when it was near death for non-voting shares (sure he wanted voting shares but Microsoft was already in a LOT of deep trouble with 26US states in supreme court battles over monopolism and such tactics. If you're REALLY keen to learn more dig for what is specified in all those patents Steve Jobs is awarded for and that Apple solely owns.

Don't forget Steve Job's own smartphone of choice pre-iPhone... the SonyEricsson P800.
And the original one the Ericsson R380 and Quartz prototype had quite original designs that I wouldn't mind seeing in an Android today (Sans the antenna of course, unless they can make a tiny stub antenna for satellite service)
