I hate to have to say this but the majority of people who would actively object to apple are not going to be apple customers and so apple won't take any notice.
I disaprove of their tactics, suing rather than offering a licence, it is done simply to eliminate android as competition but it is also a very effective way to take out competition in general.
Nexus 7 will be an apple target, especially if an ipad mini is released, it is all about control. You are right but your basically calling any passionate android fans to action and they are the very people who apple will listen to the least

Hello apple users, I have been an android person since I first got a major OS based phone, but the news of Steve Jobs' death hits me as if i was a part of apple. Jobs paved the way for computers, portable media, and the world of super powered touch screens to hit the market. He was an innovator, and a genius. (Personal note, I feel that they spat on the legacy of Steve Jobs by hiring boring Tim Cook to take over the company, I saw the iPhone 4S unveiling, worst unveiling ever, and I watch them everytime they had one. This one had NO WOW FACTOR, I was not impressed, but moving along...) Steve Jobs was the father of apple, and today, a child has been left on this Earth without his father. Android and Apple have had their back and forths, from which phone is faster all the way down to "Dude, you stole my UI! (SGS with the almost identical UI of an iPhone)" but any android user who says that Apple wasnt a pivotal point in the media/communications milestone is ignorant to say the least. I once again send my condolences out to Steve Jobs' family, the Apple corporation, and the legion of Apple/iPhone/iPod/MacBook users who are mourning his death. No one will do it like he did, and the love, compassion, and enthusiasm he had for the Apple Corporation!
May he Rest in Peace,
Ognimnella

Obviously, he is the 1%
He still uses a iPhone. It's his choice, he lives a free and easy life now.

That is a completely false statement. The thing that Woz loves more is barbecue restaurants. If you follow him, almost 100% of his foursquare checks come from these places.

Woz is a great man. He truly was the genius behind Apple. I can't stand Jobs but I totally admire Woz.

Without Woz (and after him, PARC, Jonathan Ive, Scott Forstall, etc), there would be no Apple, true. Without Jobs, Apple wouldn't be Apple, though. We saw how the company foundered, marginalized and distracted, when not under his leadership. (Fifteen hundred different models of indistinguishable Performa/LC/PowerMac models; overpriced underperforming Newtons; rebadged Canon printers; OpenDoc; Taligent/Pink/Copland ...)
I know Woz (not well, but I have met him in person (through John "Cap'n Crunch" Draper, back when The Cap'n was flinging 3.5" disks of PGP around raves). I love Woz. I was an Apple IIe/IIgs user back in the day. But Woz' contributions were of a day. All too quickly, the bare-metal hacks of elegance Woz excelled at -- nybble disk reading routines with 1:1 interleave; tricky hi-res NTSC video output -- they just weren't necessary anymore.
I think it's telling that Jobs went on to usher into the world standard-setting new gadgets until his dying days, whereas Woz tried to launch a universal remote control, put together some jam sessions, and then basically retired to teach middle school kids and play around on his Segway and other new gadgets -- all of them engineered by other people.

Jobs was a charismatic mascot who used his companies perceived underdog status, marketing acumen and relationship with mass media providers to generate massive amounts of undeserved hype for his average at best products.
The biggest standards set by apple while Jobs was in charge was patent trolling and
frivolous lawsuits.
Good on Woz for not being a fanboi.

Hope this dirty game of Apple ends, finally. I'm sick of this dirty game, just because you don't have a ultimate phone like Galaxy S series/Nexus, Apple wants it out of the market, so they can raise the price and sell more of their crap.
Just want to share this...
[oops. I think I've submited this thread in the wrong section. Any mod to move this to other place?]
I love the fact that I can totally control my life with a few stocks of the keys on my key pad. Syncing with my Google account and I'm good to go. To appointments, meetings, music, games, and apps. Keeping in touch with friends is a breeze with Google+. Having multiplied my android devices in the past two years from just having a smartphone to tablets and on going technologies that allow connection to t.v. one doesn't even need any other source for entertainment with unlimited data I can watch what I want at anytime.I can buy a game on my phone then play it on my tablet and also play the game with my Xbox controller on my smartphone or tablet. I really think Google doesn't do a good job at upselling there ecosystem as much as Apple does. But to be honest I at one time owned both a Apple computer and iPhone combo at the same time. And since then I don't any more not saying there bad products just not in my price range any more to purchase Apple products at this time and present. Anyways on to Google and there ecosystem love it more people own pc's then other operating systems. So you can see my point or actually think about it and agree.

A patent troll funded by Apple, Microsoft, and a handful of other tech companies is suing Google and a number of its Android partners, including Samsung, HTC, Asustek, and LG.
The lawsuits were filed on Thursday by a tiny company called the Rockstar Consortium, as first reported by Reuters. Rockstar is a new breed of company. It’s jointly owned by five tech giants — Apple, Microsoft, Blackberry, Sony, and Ericsson — and it’s chartered with making back the $4.5 billion these companies pooled together to build its patent portfolio. source
(Reuters) - The group that owns thousands of former Nortel patents filed a barrage of patent lawsuits on Thursday against cell phone manufacturers including Google, the company it outbid in the Nortel bankruptcy auction. source

Google files lawsuit against Apple, Microsoft backed Rockstar patent group

Last Updated: Friday, December 27, 2013, 11:56
Washington: Google has reportedly filed a lawsuit against Apple and Microsoft backed consortium Rockstar, claiming that its patent campaign is unfairly targeting Google's Android partners and customers.
The search giant has alleged that Rockstar's litigation campaign is placing a cloud on Google's Android platform and threatened its sales of Nexus-branded Android devices.
According to Cnet, the lawsuit stated that among the companies included in Rockstar's patent dragnet are customers and partners of Google who use Android OS in their devices ASUS, HTC, Huawei, LG, Pantech, Samsung, and ZTE. In October, Rockstar filed suits against Google and other companies over a host of allegedly infringing patents.

Since 2006, Samsung has ranked No. 2 after IBM in terms of the number of registered patents in the U.S. each year. The Korean electronics giant has around 100,000 patented technologies.
According to market researcher TechIPm, Samsung own 23 percent of the fourth-generation LTE technology patents registered in the U.S.
Google for its part dominates the global mobile OS market. More than 80 percent of smartphones sold around the world are equipped with the Android OS. Google has around 50,000 patents, but though it lags behind Samsung in terms of the sheer number, it is a behemoth in the field of software.
