Where was the Samsung hate then? Where were the accusations of money grabbing? "Typical Samsung. Despicable. Anti-consumer." I'm sure that was on the lips of every Android fan these past five years.

So, yeah, Apple’s going to benefit a bit too on these new sales. The accessories market is an area where Apple pulls in a ton of revenue, for iPods, iPhones and iPads. The company brought in nearly $2 billion to $3 billion selling accessories in fiscal year 2011 alone, according to some estimations. And much of those accessories that Apple makes, like cables and adapters, are almost pure profit, since they don’t cost that much to build in the first place.
