    Re: yet another ludicrous patent granted for apple...

    I really can't stand this patent trolling any more, but who honestly can stand up to Apple and stop it? I think Apple simply won't stop until they are the unquestionable dominant force in mobile computing, and they will take down as many companies and throttle as much innovation as possible in the progress.

    All I can personally do is continue to boycott apple with my @saynotoapple twitter and facebook pages and spread the word that the intelligent reasonable human being that is aware of Apple's practices will refuse to buy their products.

    And it's crap like this that makes me feel that I would go without a phone before I would ever get an iPhone.

    I don't like Apple, I don't own any apple gear and I never will.
