    No they didn't. Stop spreading FUD.
    The trade dress (Not patent) suit is much more specific than that. And you have either read it and know that and are spreading FUD maliciously, or you haven't read the details of the trade dress suite, and are just trolling

    Other than your attempt at trolling by calling them a patent troll (Which you know it isn't. The troll in patent troll refers to the hidden tax/fee you need to pay to cross a trolls bridge. There is no hidden tax/fee with Apple. They don't want people to licence their patents), you are right in a way. The patent system should be tweaked. You should dislike the rules of the game, not the players

    Yeah I should dislike the game(Guess what I do,the patent system is flawed!) and some people need to stop being isheep.

    Surely EVERYTHING Apple does cant be right unlike some here would have you believe....I guess if you keep the propaganda going long enough people might believe you just like they believe our two rip-off networks advertising campaigns.

    I'm here to counter your pro Apple trolling,its like they say fight fire with fire.And when you do stop with blatant pro Apple propaganda then you can TRY to call me a troll until then dont bother because nobody on THIS forum is dumb enough to fall for your Apple advertising.

    I called you out for trolling, as I suspect you know what the definition of patent troll is, and what the troll in patent troll refers to. You don't like them being litigious, but try to fan the flames by using the word patent troll, which has a specific meaning.

    What on earth makes you think I think everything apple does is right???? That's one hell of a wrong assertion.

    And stop insulting people on this forum with the damn "iSheep" insult. It is neither clever or funny

    Stop insulting our intelligence,everyone can see how you ALWAYS have some thing nice to post about Apple,always trying to calmly and from different angles show the Apple side of the story.

    Shame poor innocent Apple,they are just defending their intellectual rights right......yeah we all believe that buddy.

    No, I *often* come from an angle where I can understand Apple's position. Not *always*. I also disagree with them quite often

    Well, I still think that Apple are patent trolls - especially after looking at some of the patents that they have tried to register over the last decade.

    I quite agree with the Judge in the UK case.

    It is not about being politically correct, it is using words and phrases according to their meaning, not according to what you wish them to mean

    Regarding their patents in the last decade, whether you agree that they are valid patents or not aside, lets say they aren't valid patents. That does still not not meet the requirements to be a patent troll, which has a very specific and defined meaning.

    Regarding the UK judge, I like his ruling as well
