Why Apple suing every tablet maker is stupid
If Apple feels that it could stop and sue Samsung from selling the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 based on "community design" infringements -- meaning copying the appearance, colors, shape, and texture of the product itself -- and basically implying that any rectangular, thin tablet with a bezel looks like and is copying an iPad, then I think the JooJoo tab (aka CrunchPad) should sue them.
The JooJoo (Crunchpad) tab came out in 2009 while the iPad came out in 2010.
Once you add the Xoom to the mix, it's clear that Apple is just reaching. The tablet idea (rectangular + a touchscreen) was devised way before the iPad came out. Apple made tablets popular but they were not originators of the idea.
It's one thing to compete fairly based on features and innovations. It's another thing to claim that you originated every single idea in the world, and that everything that looks even remotely similar is copying you, and that only you have the rights to sell such a device. Apple is making record profit margins and yet they feel they can only stop others via court and lawsuits.

Moses or God should sue Apple. The tablet was originally designed by God for the Ten commandments.
This a great tablet. The Samsung Galaxy Tab I mean. And it is on Android, an open-source project. I hate the Apple guys turning into their once worst nightmare, m$.

“Down and Out” — Bruce goes Helter Skelter! Very different for you, I like it.
I think the insulated bottles would be perfect for a short day hike — not too far. I wonder if anyone makes a mid-sized bottle? I’ve been looking for one that would last a few hours but doesn’t feel like you’re carrying a cooler.
