Appeal Coming Soon" Member since:  Apple is getting absolutely
slaughtered outside North America. The iPhone market can't exist
without massive carrier subsidies. Hence the frivolous lawsuits.
Are you like trying to convince yourself or someone else here?
1) Apple earns almost 60% of it's IPhone revenue from
international sales.  2) International iPhone sales are the
growth driver, while NA sales are slowing as the market
saturates.  3) Apple's primary lawsuits are all in US. Software
patents and trade dress patents are much weaker outside the US
and so - other that the circus in Germany - really have no
tangible impact on international sales.  But feel free to
believe whatever helps you sleep at night.   Reply Parent Score:
