It is not. I think it sets an awful precedent. Perhaps, with the patents in place, there wasn't much choice, legally, in the ruling. But it's a depressing result and those patents should never have existed. This ruling makes it impossible for anyone to design a phone with a large screen with a thin bezel, essentially giving Apple a monopoly on the smart phone market. And provides a blueprint for any other company to due the same with other products.
