Again, if a company feels that its IP and designs are being given away without any recompense to itself, it has a right to seek redress. And then the judge decides...I don't understand the complaints about going to a neutral third party to settle grievances.

Point 1: I knew you would come up with another excuse for Apple when they inevitably will lose one "market leader status" after another.
Point 2: We object because it is a frivolous lawsuit based on industry-wide generic attributes. Designed only to temporarily halt the competition's sales and thus causing monetary damages and restricting competition. The Australian judges have already thrown out this nonsense. The problem is that once this gets thrown out of court then Apple still has inflicted a lot of damages on consumers and Samsung, and also has halted sales for a few months. It is an abuse of the legal system to inflict damage on the competition, to fool the public into thinking that everybody is just copying Apple.
This is worse than if somebody had sued Apple for adding 'cut&paste' to IOS. And since the next iphone will have a bigger screen, shouldn't others (HTC, Samsung, Motorola, etc) be waiting in the wings to sue Apple for copying that design?
Apple is playing the old "my legal department is bigger than yours" game. And it is hurting everybody. Except Motorola stock holders and all the lawyers involved in this.
