No company should be able to patent a grid of icons, a pinch-to-zoom gesture or shape of a phone. Fair enough I do agree to an extent that Samsung infringed, but the incompetence of the jury in this case will make for a delicious appeal and halt the celebrations.

Some of the solutions like pinch-to-zoom, etc would have mostly been solutions another company would have eventually come up with anyway.
