Absolutely hilarious!
Samsung pays Apple $1 Billion sending 30 trucks full of 5 cent coins
That should teach them not to be so anal about squares with rounded corners.. (Too bad it is fake) Last edited by David Munch; 09-01-2012 at 04:17 AM. |

No way Samsung will pay them a penny before appealing 3 or 74 times! Got to pay the lawyers first!

Frankly, I think Apple ripped off Palm. Palm and Sony both had PDAs out a decade before Apple introduced the iPhone, and those old PalmOS devices looked very similar as far as icons to iOS. iOS is much better of course, but since Apple sued Samsung for piddly sh!$ stuff, Palm (or rather whoever bought Palm, HP?) should sue Apple for like $100 billion. These darn lawsuits based on patents that show concept sketches should be thrown out. You could easily draw a sketch of cartoon-like flying saucer craft, patent it without any technology info being included, then wait 25 years until someone actually builds one that works then sue them. That is how screwed up patent laws are in the USA.

Apparently 1billion $ in 5 cents would take more than 2700 trucks.. |

I saw this one on 9gag at first I thought it was real but upon searching news about it it happens to be fake. I would love to see the face of apple bosses upon receiving such payment in coins .

Me too! Attention: Samsung, why not make that hoax news real? That would be so cool and intriguing! Additional marketing strategy!

"I found this amusing. Yesterday one Twitter user noticed that staff at Hackney Wick station were killing both birds with one stone, by issuing advice for users of Apple's Maps app.
"For the benefit of passengers using Apple iOS 6," the notice said. "Local area maps are available from the booking office". http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012...hp_ref=uk-tech |
