Thank you for that comment. I find it weird that the patent was not only not invalidated, but Samsung was found infringing, even with the Surface prior art clearly existing.


Me too.

IANAL, sadly; interpreting this thing would take a lot of time and effort for a lay man.

I can understand them getting hit on willful infringement, but the way the verdict was read out, they got hit for infringement first, and then willful infringement.

I'm confused too.
