The who Apple Samsung lawsuit has been around for a while, and so has a complait against the Motorola Xoom. This was uncovered when Apple reportedly tried getting an injunction of the Xoom, which experts are agreeing with. The fact that Apple, which is apparently king of the tablet seas, decides who sells what in each country defines what type of company they are. Apple is like a child who doesn't listen to anyone and tries to get what he, or she, wants. Since coming out with the first successful tablet device, they felt that they would control everything tablet related, which is not right. The while idea of private enterprise was private ownership of companies where competition was expected. There were laws that would prevent takeovers of specific types of markets, the monopoly laws. Now, in some way, Apple is pulling monopoly moves, getting rid of the competition, but using the legal system to make this ok. Going after Motorola's Xoom makes what I say clear, seeing as the only 2 similarities are that they are tablets, and rectangle looking. Saying that is copyright infringement is crazy. Apple feels threatened by other companies releasing android tablets, but removing competition like this only hurts other companies and the integrity of Apple itself. Apple has played dirty moves just to gain back a few percentage points. Leave a comment to tell us what you think of Apple's "necessary lawsuits."
