i'll make it very easy for u. step by step approach.
1. prerequisite: make sure u know how a galaxy s and iphone 4 look like
2. remove samsung logo from galaxy s
3. take an iphone 4
4. ask your friend (better still your enemy) to shuffle the phones real well
5. lay it side by side in a bright and clear table.
6. you now pick up the iphone 4.
7. now, if u get it step 6 wrong, u are either a 2 year old, or u have a brain disorder in recognizing objects.

ok 3gs then. 3gs lagi don't look like galaxy s. repeat my 7 step procedure using 3gs. if u get it wrong then please report it here and i see if i can refer u to a good doctor.
anyway, i not am not here to digress. my point again:
can phones that comply with apple "rectangle with round edges" patent can still be comfortable to hold and practical to use? an analogy i can give is if you patent "car with 4 wheels", then a car with 5 wheels and 3 wheels just won't sell. its just not practical! it is how the "rectangle with round edges" patent was formed. i know its more than the title, but the details enforces more my point that apple just patented a basic practical smartphone design which makes it anti competitive. and brings to my point that patents like this kind are SILLY
just to add, in case u say "the exact objective of PATENTS is to be anti competitive. just live with it". then i must say it should not be that way. is not a principal centred objective. give u another anology. honesty is a principal. no matter what u say or do, dishonesty is just wrong. u can't change that. same goes with "pro-competition". no matter what u say or do, "anti-competition" is just wrong.
at the very LEAST, do us a favor and DON'T be an ignorant fanboy.
