The idea that if Apple hadn't come along we'd still all be using Blackberries is just silly. Someone else would have slapped a capacitive touchscreen over the entire front of a phone and things would be on their way.

Not to mention does anyone really think rounded corners was invented by apple? How about tap to zoom?
Nope but they sure were aggressive enough to hire lots of software patent lawyers and try to patent all they could.
Not to say apple is the only one, lots of companies are doing this nonsense.
