Apple just plain and simply loves to sue. I read somewhere they once tried to sue New York City because it's used an apple in it's new logo. They also tried to sue an Australian fresh food Supermarket (Woolworths) because it used an apple in their logo. None of the apples even look like Apples logo. As for different phone designs, maybe Samsung could create similar looking phones to the Galaxy Nexus. That phone looks like pure sex, such a sexy looking phone. If it wasn't overpriced here in Australia and have a rather weak GPU I'd buy it out right.
