Samsung appeals the Samsung Galaxy Nexus ban, obviously

Samsung's lawyers made an extremely unpredictable (sarcasm) move yesterday by filing an appeal for the preliminary Samsung Galaxy Nexus ban that Apple made a couple of days ago. Samsung's lawyers are claiming that the ban is "inconsistent with the Federal Circuit's directive that market share losses must be substantial," and as FOSS Patents says, "attribute to the 'infringing feature,' not just the presence of the infringing product on the market." This appeal is a lot like the appeal Samsung made for Apple's Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 ban that stopped United States sales of it last week. We here think that these bans are completely unnecessary and just a nuisance. These bans are just Apple's way to make more money and take products off the shelves without making a more compelling product and innovating more. Apple should just stop nitpicking patents, just mind their business, and work on making products that would wow us like they used to. These patent wars are just messing up and ruining the technology landscape by not letting companies put out great products, because of all these patents. We do understand that patents are to protect a companies good idea, but when they have broad, stupid, patents they just go around trolling products to make money.

A New Leaf

Hello everybody; it's been a while. With school, work, and my extracurricular activities, I haven't had as much time as I would have wanted to spend writing. In the two years since I've last posted, I was vice president, president, and varsity captain for my high school's Academic Decathlon team, went to the California state Academic Decathlon competition twice, was a student commissioner for my city's Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, a speech coach for Chinese students learning English, earned my Eagle Scout rank, and was accepted into my dream school, the University of California San Diego. With that in mind, I'm also about to graduate high school. I wasn't the speaker that my high school teachers were looking for as graduation speaker, but I thought it would be remiss if I did not say anything. My original speech would seem a bit out of context as an article, so this is a slightly abridged version. "Throughout my high school career, this...

Hands-on with the Nokia Lumia 1020.

Smartphone cameras have drastically changed in the past few years. Most smartphone cameras have improved so much that most people use their smartphone as their main camera. Some companies have decided to make  cameras with fewer megapixels and better sensors , while most smartphone manufactures have improved their cameras by adding more megapixels. Nokia is one of these people and they have proven it even more with their latest smartphone, the Nokia Lumia 1020. Look and Feel Nokia's Lumia line of handsets has some of the most unique hardware on the market. If you see something that looks like a Nokia phone on the street, there is a pretty good chance that it is a Nokia. Nokia pioneered the unibody polycarbonate design, and is pretty close to perfecting it. Their Lumia line is full of beautiful, colorful, and unique polycarbonate bodies. The Lumia 1020 does not stray too far away from its siblings. The 1020 comes in three gorgeous colors; matte white, black, and yellow. We ...

AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note Ice Cream Sandwich update is coming tomorrow with Premium Suite

Is Gingerbread too dry for you on your enormous Samsung phablet? We have good news for you if you are that such of a person, because the AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy Note is finally getting a cold, sweet serving of Ice Cream Sandwich tomorrow. Along with the usual features that come with Ice Cream Sandwich version 4.0.4, Samsung threw in the Premium Suite that came on the international version's Ice Cream Sandwich update. The Premium Suite offers big improvements in S-Memo and S-note, and S-note is now integrated with Wolphram Alpha. Disappointingly, you will not get the TouchWiz features that are on the Samsung Galaxy s III's (S-Voice, Smart Stay, S-Beam, Photo Recognition, and many other S's). You still will probably not be disappointed from the lack of these features, because you will still get many other new features in the upgrade. For those of you who do not know what the Samsung Galaxy Note is, it is the smart phone that has the biggest screen in the ...
