Of course they perceive an injustice. They lost the gamble. Just because you and Apple see an injustice doesn't make it one. The case was pretty clear cut and the the Judge's rulings seem to leave little for Apple to make a successful appeal on. Guess will just have to wait and see how upper courts rule.
