No the real problem here is the sheer ignorance of people such as yourself commenting on this issue.
Apple never patented rounded corners or click to call. It's as simple as that. What was patented is a very specific design that would take Samsung all of 10 mins to work around (e.g. like they did with the Galaxy 10.1n).
And how about the two elephants in the room: Microsoft and Nokia who have built something unique, innovative and just don't seem to get nearly enough respect or credit for their efforts.

I haven't seen the actual patent in question, but that doesn't sound like a very specific design to me.
