I just saw in the news this morning that the jury a stone's throw away from Apple's world headquarters ruled in favor of Apple and against Samsung in the cell phone patent lawsuit. I expected this, because juries are generally too dumb to be deciding patent cases, but it's disappointing anyway.
Smart phones are going to be more expensive now, and there will be fewer advancements and choices. Apple has gone from a business model of innovating to one of litigating.
I work in a patent law firm, so this helps my job security, but as a consumer, it's bad.
