The verdict -- which came much sooner than expected -- could lead to an outright ban on sales of key Samsung products and will likely solidify Apple's dominance of the exploding mobile computing market.
I'm still not paying for Apple's over priced garbage..

So the Amercan court found in Apple's favor, and the Korean court found in Samsung's favor...

Justice is blind, alright.

I meant the 4s at a contract price (Sprint)

Why is BB's price $50 higher?

My point, iPhone (4, 4s, iWhatever) is not more than the bang-zoom Samsung.

Well if you compare a 2 year old phone against a brand new phone it's not. The 1 year old Samsungs are pretty much free now and have LTE against the 4s (Apple's 1 year old phone) which is just $50 off the original price it sold for if you have Sprint, if you don't have Sprint, you are still paying full price.

Can't compare apples and oranges...

If you are buying apple, money shouldn't even be a consideration, because you won't ever save money against their competitors.

If you mean the galaxy 2, sure it's cheaper, but it's also flimsy feeling compared to the iphone, and it's camera isn't nearly as good.

LTE, ok that's an advantage, but if you're not streaming HD, it isn't that big of a deal.

LTE is a huge advantage on Verizon. If you are on AT&T, I would agree its just a slight advantage.

Apples may feel better, but it fairs about the same in drops. Heck I have seen samsungs fair a lot better in drops. Replacing screens on the iPhone is incredibly common.
