Pretty much, the new screen on iOS7 is really so close to Google Now that if Google had added it in Android 5 there would have been all sorts of arrogant smug blog articles about how Google can't innovate etc.
Practically a carbon copy of one of Google's most advanced features is worthy of note I think.

This seems to indicate that Apple did indeed assert what I claimed. Can you show me how this is false?
Apple asserted a design patent that protects the overall appearance of the iPhone - the 'trade dress'. Rounded corners are one of many attributes that describe the appearance of the iPhone. If you copy enough attributes - as the court ruled that Samsung did, you have copied the appearance.
Taking a single element out of context is a lie that Samsung originated, designed to give the appearance that Apple attempted to protect a ridiculously broad concept which the documents show that they did not do.
You are straight up lying here. Observe the patent: http://www.google.com/patents/USD593087
'many attributes' in this case meaning 'two attributes'.
Reading your post history you have a short history of only posting pro Apple and repeating many similar assertions. Yet you have the gall to accuse me of being a paid shill. Hilarious.
