Totally "debunked" by AppleInsider. Yup, open/closed for sure.
Can we get over this? Everyone steals, especially in UI.

Debunked by the OP's article despite the misleading headline.
And regardless of AppleInsider, facts is facts: Samsung's wasn't seen till after Apple's was seen.

I just find it funny when people start nitpicking things like this in the order of weeks or even months. Product development isn't overnight and I just think it's silly to imply that a product announcement on Tuesday that includes features similar to a product announced Monday implies theft or even borrowing when both of said products have likely been in R&D for months or longer.

In fact, from the OP's article:
"There's just one small problem. While the photo above might make great fodder for those reflexively inclined to believe that Apple has no case, the fact is that the photo is utterly misleading."
