(This comes from an S2 user with Pinch-To-Zoom.)
First, Pinch-To-Zoom is the best idea anyone has come up with yet, but it certainly won't be the last.
If anything, this decision forces Google/Samsung etc. to innovate a better solution. If you don’t think one exists, I think you are sorely mistaken. Pinch-To-Zoom needs to be used by 2 hands (one to pinch, one to hold the phone) which inherently is annoying.
If the patents are trivial, obvious, etc. other companies will find workarounds and some of those workarounds will be better than what is currently available.
In 12 months, this lawsuit will be meaningless because technology will keep advancing forward.
