Samsung did not "copy bytes" from
Apple, but the courts recently ruled
that the similarities are infringing.
That's a patent suit, which is a whole different kettle of fish. I think
there's a good chance that Samsung will get an appeal on the basis that the
judge improperly disallowed some significant evidence.
