I wouldnt worry about it too much. Apple wont be coming out with the next iphone for a while

http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-57506127-71/iphone-5-clone-maker-to-sue-apple-over-um-iphone-5-patent/

A report suggests that GooPhone, the Hong Kong-based company that created an Android iPhone 5 knock-off, has patented the design in China and will aggressively protect it.

I am frightfully excited about the iPhone 5.

I am excited because I hope it will look nothing like the iPhone 5 images and alleged prototypes that have been tossed around by rumormongers -- and will therefore be exciting.

Yet just as my excitement reaches the boundaries of human safety, along comes a report that suggests Apple might be sued over the iPhone 5's design.

Yes, sued.

You see, someone has allegedly already patented the rumormongered design in China. That someone is iPhone 5 knock-off maker GooPhone.

Should the current political convention season have driven you into living in your nuclear shelter, you might have missed that GooPhone released an Android "iPhone 5" just a few days ago.

This thing physically resembles some of the rumor-pushers' revelations. It just has a little nosy robot on the back, rather than an apple.

Yet now Gizmodo China, as well as its sisterhood in the U.S. are suggesting that GooPhone has taken out a patent on the design in China and will sue Apple if its own iPhone 5 resembles the Gooey one.

This is surely quite frightening.

It's not as if Apple loves lawsuits, especially patent lawsuits. The company does everything it can to avoid them. I know this to be true.

For it to be subject to a patent lawsuit -- because of a phone of its very own patently unique design -- would be a tragedy akin to going for a pedicure and having one's toenails removed because they have the same shape as the pedicurist's.

GooPhone's alleged argument is that its phone came out first. Ergo, the design is theirs. Which has a certain perverse logic that one could imagine a lawyer for the Camorra making.

Still, the legal liberties of the world are anything but free. And China is such a very important market for Apple, now that the company is so very large and ubiquitous.

Many will surely hope that the GooPhone folks will have stepped in goo of their own making when they see just what a magical and revolutionary-looking thing the real iPhone 5 will be when it's unveiled next week.

Keep telling yourself. The iPhone 5 will not look like the GooPhone.

Apple owns the patent. Apple just won lawsuits based on owning patents so that Samsung could not employ those technologies. Many companies own patents and never use them. For all you know Apple got the patent so that other companies like Samsung can't use this technology to garnish deals with government agencies and outsell them.
Also, I'm sure that as soon as word gets out that a phone can do this sales would drop immediately. Apple knows that. Come on guys, their business acumen won't be trumped by your conspiracy theories.

Oh, dude, get a smart phone. They are amazing (mine paid be $700 in the last two months with an App I got).

I was just about to say that exact point.... Apple can be very dickish... But usually it is to their competition. And it seems like this patent is not describing something that couldn't already be done with current technology, it could be done presently with changes to the phone's operating system.

Mehh I'm not worried about this one bit and will be acquiring the iPhone 5 when I'm able. If they try to implement this shit it's not going to go over well with anyone. I wish they would.

Because the simple and easy to follow rules in the news forum state:

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

I hope they don't implement any feature that would keep you from being able to dial 911 at any time. That would be messed up :thumbdown:

It's definately a possibility. Someone could use it to their advantage for blackmail. "don't tell, or don't live"
