The bottom line is that there was no sales loss to apple as a result, which is what they've been claiming all along, and the question you refuse to answer, over and over again. We know why.
If you want to discuss the effect of copying on sales, feel free to answer the questions I asked to Bilbo above. He seems to have disappeared just as that discussion began.

You may be getting ahead of yourself, though. Unfortunately, you haven't yet understood that Samsung's internal documents recommended copying the iPhone, recommendations which they later implemented. We'll keep posting slides until you do.

84. Messaging — SMS

In the Abc mode of the text message entry system, additional latin characters such as 'À, Ê, Ï, Õ' cannot be entered
  • iPhone: In the Abc mode, if the vowel button is long-pressed, an entry window containing additional Latin characters is shown
  • S1: Additional Latin characters can be entered only after changing the language mode

iPhone: When A is long pressed in the ABC mode, additional Latin characters (German, French, and Spanish) can be immediately typed in
S1: Input language must be changed to German, French, Spanish, etc. in order to enter additional Latin characters

Directions for improvement: Modification requested to enable input of additional Latin characters directly from the Abc mode as in iPhone

(The "as in iPhone" is a nice touch)
