MS. MCNEILL: Good morning, Mr. Tan.
10:10
Q How are you today?
10:10
A Fine, thank you.
10:10
Q We met briefly earlier, but my name is Mary 10:10
McNeill, and I'm counsel for Samsung, and I'll be
10:11
asking you a few questions today.
10:11
A Yes.
10:11
Q Do you understand that you're under oath
10:11
today?
10:11
A Yes.
10:11
Q And that your testimony today has the same
10:11
effect as it would if you were in court?

about?
10:26
A Can you -- when you say refresh my memory
10:26
about, about what?
10:26
Q That's what I'm trying to determine. You
10:26
said that you looked at some e-mails that helped
10:26
refresh your memory about things that had happened. 10:26
And I'm trying to decide: What subject
10:26
matter about the product design of the iPhone did you 10:26
read about that helped refresh your memory?
10:26
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:26
question.
10:26
THE WITNESS: I cannot remember specific
10:26
e-mails. Again, there were a lot of e-mails that we 10:26
went through, so -10:26
MS. MCNEILL: Okay.
10:26
Q And if you could direct your attention back 10:26
to page 8 of Exhibit 2100, please.
10:26
What did you do to prepare yourself to
10:27
testify about the function or performance benefits of 10:27
Apple's design patents?
10:27
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:27
question; assuming facts not in evidence, in light of 10:27
the topics on which this witness was designated in 10:27
correspondence by counsel.

MS. MCNEILL: And to the extent your answer 10:27
is the same as your answer was with respect to
10:27
Topic 2, you can state that as well.
10:27
MR. MONACH: Again, I'll -- I'll remind the 10:27
witness not to disclose any specifics of
10:27
attorney-client communications.
10:27
THE WITNESS: I met with Andy on Monday,
10:27
again, for the whole day, and I spoke to my peers,
10:27
Brian Lynch and John Ternus.
10:27
MS. MCNEILL: Okay.
10:28
Q Did you do anything different to prepare for 10:28
Topic 3 as you did to prepare for Topic 2?
10:28
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:28
question to the extent it misstates the scope of the 10:28
witness' 30(b)(6) designation.
10:28
THE WITNESS: No. They're all part of the
10:28
same conversation.
10:28
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And do you recall looking 10:28
at any specific e-mails that helped refresh your
10:28
memory with respect to Topic 3?
10:28
A No particular communications I remember.
10:28
Q And directing your attention to the fourth
10:28
topic below that, did you do anything different to
10:28
prepare for Topic 4 than you did to prepare for
10:28
Topics 2 and 3 that we've previously discussed?

10:29
A Yes.
10:29
Q And in preparation for Topic 4, did you
10:29
review any e-mails that helped refresh your
10:29
recollection about the subject matter of this topic? 10:29
A No.
10:29
Q Do you recall reviewing any documents in
10:29
general that refreshed your recollection about the 10:29
subject of Topic 4, any reference or consideration of 10:29
any Samsung or third-party products by anyone at
10:29
Apple?
10:29
A Not that I recollect.
10:29
Q And did Apple ever consider using curved
10:29
glass on the front surface of the iPhone instead of 10:29
flat glass?
10:29
A Yes.
10:29
Q And what were Apple's actions with respect to 10:29
that consideration?
10:29
A We did a -- we did a feasibility study -- a 10:30
feasibility study with the cross-functional team.
10:30
Q I'm sorry. What kind of study did you say? 10:30
A Feasibility.
10:30
Q Visibility.

team?
10:30
MR. MONACH: I believe that may miss -10:30
inadvertently misstate his testimony, but let's be 10:30
clear.
10:30
Did you say visibility or feasibility?
10:30
THE WITNESS: Feasibility.
10:30
MR. MONACH: Feasibility.
10:30
MS. MCNEILL: Okay.
10:30
Q What were the results of the feasibility
10:30
study that you performed with the cross-function team 10:30
with respect to using curved glass on the iPhone?
10:30
A Our studies showed that it was possible to 10:30
make a curved glass product.
10:31
Q And why wasn't curved glass pursued on the
10:31
iPhone?
10:31
A We presented the facts to the industrial
10:31
design team, and they ultimately decide whether
10:31
it's -- whether they wanted it curved or flat. So I'm 10:31
not privy to the decisions they make.
10:31
Q Do you have any understanding of why they
10:31
made that decision?
10:31
A No. I'm not part of the industrial design 10:31
group.

10:31
understanding of why the industrial design -- design 10:31
team decided not to use curved glass on the iPhone? 10:31
A No.
10:31
Q And is that your best recollection on the
10:31
subject of why -10:31
MR. MONACH: Asked and answered -- asked and 10:31
answered.
10:31
MS. MCNEILL: Q. -- Apple didn't use the
10:31
curved glass on the iPhone?
10:31
A Yeah, I have no knowledge of what -- how they 10:31
decided to go with the cover of the glass.
10:31
Q And what were the facts that you presented to 10:32
the industrial design team to help inform their
10:32
decision about using curved glass versus flat glass on 10:32
the iPhone?
10:32
A I can't recall the full details because it's 10:32
been a few years since we've done that. I can't
10:32
remember the details of it. All I know is that we
10:32
presented some data, and the details of the data is 10:32
vague to me.
10:32
Q And setting aside the specific details of the 10:32
exact data that you presented, based on your research, 10:32
do you have an understanding of the different facts 10:32

that were presented with regard to curved glass versus 10:32

10:32
A Again, it's been a while. It's been a few 10:32
years that we presented the data. I know that we did, 10:33
but I can't remember the details.
10:33
Q And setting aside the specific details of the 10:33
data, do you have any understanding of why it would be 10:33
more beneficial to use flat glass on the iPhone versus 10:33
curved glass?
10:33
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:33
question; assumes facts not in evidence; and to the 10:33
extent it purports to misstate his prior testimony, it 10:33
misstates his prior testimony.
10:33
THE WITNESS: Again, I have no privy to the 10:33
decision that's made why they wanted to go flat or 10:33
curved. The industrial design team basically makes 10:33
that decision.
10:33
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And separating aside the 10:33
industrial design team's decision and specific memory 10:33
about specific facts you presented to them, do you, 10:33
Mr. Tan, siting here today, have an understanding as 10:33
to the benefits of using flat glass versus curved
10:33
glass on a mobile device?
10:34
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:34
question; lack of foundation; vague.

10:34
presented. And that's what -- that's what -- that's 10:34
what I recollect.
10:34
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And do you have any
10:34
understanding of why the flat glass was chosen over 10:34
the curved glass, given that both were feasible?
10:34
MR. MONACH: Objection; asked and answered 10:34
multiple times.
10:34
You can do it again.
10:34
THE WITNESS: Basically, we presented the
10:34
facts. The industrial design group made the decision. 10:34
And because I'm not a part of the industrial design 10:34
group, I am not privy to any decision that was made. 10:34
MS. MCNEILL: Q. Did Apple ever make any
10:34
models of phones using curved glass?
10:34
A It has been a few years, but I seem to
10:35
recollect that.
10:35
Q And do you recall how many models were made 10:35
with curved glass?
10:35
A I can't recollect how many there were made. 10:35
Q Do you recall who made the phone models that 10:35
used curved glass?
10:35
A I can't recollect.
10:35
Q And do you recall -- or do you know whether 10:35

the manufacturing feasibility of using curved glass? 10:35
MR. MONACH: Objection; vague.
10:35
THE WITNESS: I vaguely remember. Again,
10:35
it's been a few years. My recollection is that we did 10:35
do a study.
10:35
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And do you recall what the 10:35
study told you?
10:35
A No, I don't. It's been a few years.
10:35
Q Do you recall in any way the results of any 10:35
research performed related to using flat glass versus 10:35
using curved glass on the iPhone?
10:36
MR. MONACH: Objection; asked and answered, 10:36
in part.
10:36
THE WITNESS: Again, I think the -- the study 10:36
showed that both were feasible, but that's all I can 10:36
recollect.
10:36
MS. MCNEILL: Q. Do you recall that one was 10:36
more feasible or cost-effective than the other?
10:36
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:36
question.
10:36
THE WITNESS: I don't recollect the cost part 10:36
of it.

MS. MCNEILL: And to the extent that both
10:36
were feasible, do you recall whether one was more
10:36
feasible than the other?
10:36
MR. MONACH: Objection; asked and answered; 10:36
vague.
10:36
THE WITNESS: Again, I know -- I know it's 10:37
feasible, but I don't remember whether one was more 10:37
than the other.
10:37
MS. MCNEILL: Okay.
10:37
Q Did Apple ever conduct any analyses of the 10:37
financial feasibility of using curved glass on the 10:37
iPhone?
10:37
A I personally don't recollect. I handle the 10:37
product design. That's not a group that handles the 10:37
costing of materials. So I -- I don't recollect the 10:37
cost analyses of a curved versus flat glass.
10:37
Q And in preparation for today's deposition, 10:37
did you review any documents that referenced analyses 10:37
of the manufacturing feasibility of using curved
10:38
glass?
10:38
A No, I did not.

Q And did Apple consider an alternative design 10:38
for the iPhone with the screen sunken into the body of 10:38
the phone?
10:38
A Can you define what "sunken into the body of 10:38
the phone" means?
10:38
Q As opposed to a flat continuous surface from 10:38
edge to edge. Did Apple ever consider an alternative 10:38
design for the iPhone where the screen was sunken into 10:38
the body of the phone?
10:38
A I know that we did review a series of
10:38
different designs, and yes, that was part of -- that 10:38
was basically one of the design considerations that 10:38
were taken into account.
10:38
Q And what were others?
10:38
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:39
question as being beyond the scope of the 30(b)(6)
10:39
topics.
10:39
But to the extent you have personal
10:39
information, you can testify to it.
10:39
THE WITNESS: So this -- you mentioned
10:39
there's a sunken. There's a flush. Then there's also 10:39
this -- there's also proud glass, which is classified 10:39
as curved glass to be a product surface.
10:39
MS. MCNEILL: Okay.
10:39
Q So you consider proud another way to describe 10:39

what would be -- what we also discuss as being curved 10:39
glass; is -- is that true?
10:39
A Yes.
10:39
Q And why didn't Apple pursue any of those
10:39
alternative designs, the sunken-in glass or the proud 10:39
glass?
10:39
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
10:39
question as assuming facts not in evidence and
10:39

10:40
THE WITNESS: Again, I think we -- we -- from 10:40
what I recollect, we -- we did our study, we presented 10:40
our findings to the industrial design group, and they 10:40
made the decision.
10:40
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And specifically with
10:40
respect to have -- to the alternative design of the 10:40
screen that's sunken into the body, what were the
10:40
results of the study that you performed?
10:40
A It's been a few years since we presented that 10:40
finding, so I can't recollect exactly. There are some 10:40
performance -- there are some performance tradeoffs 10:40
with either a flush or a sub-flush display.
10:40
Q And do you recall generally what those
10:40
performance tradeoffs were with respect to the flush 10:40
or sub-flush display?
10:41
A Generally, with the screen that's recessed

from the surface, there is more protection of the -- 10:41
the display itself in a -- in a reliability event, 10:41
yeah.
10:41
Q And any other general tradeoffs that you can 10:41
recall with respect to the sunk -- to the flush glass 10:41
versus the sub-flush display?
10:41
A I mean, there are other manufacturing
10:41
considerations that can be taken into account. The 10:41
execution of it is different. It's -- with a -- with 10:41
a -- with a sub-flush glass, the -- the way you
10:41
manufacture the bezel and the -- I mean, the enclosure 10:41
and the way we architect the display would be very 10:41
different.
10:41
Q And how so?
10:41
A It's -10:42
Q How would the way that you manufacture the 10:42
enclosure and architecture of the display be different 10:42
with sub-flush glass?
10:42
MR. MONACH: Object to form.
10:42
THE WITNESS: Just different forms of -10:42
again, that question is very vague. But with every -- 10:42
with every different design, there are challenges that 10:42
go with the fabrication of it. But in -- from what I 10:42
remember, flush and sub-flush glass were feasible. 10:42

10:42
generally, aside from the increased protectability 10:42
that you discussed earlier?
10:43
A That's all I can recollect on protectability. 10:43
Q And do you remember generally the results of 10:43
the studies you performed with respect to the proud 10:43
glass over flush glass?

few years.
10:43
MS. MCNEILL: Q. Why did Apple, despite its 10:43
feasibility, decide not to pursue -- strike that.
10:43
Why didn't Apple pursue the design of
10:43
sunken-in glass?
10:43
A Again, as I mentioned, we presented our
10:43
findings. The industrial design team made the
10:43
decision.

10:44
models of the design with the screen or base plate 10:44
sunken into the phone?

Q Do you know whether Apple keeps these models? 10:44

past experiments. Put one up in the product design 10:45
lab.
10:45
Q And did Apple ever produce any of these
10:45
models to Samsung?

Did Apple try to learn any information about 10:46
how users would interact with a sunken-in screen
10:46
versus a flat continuous surface?
10:46
A Not -- not as far as I -- not -- not as far 10:46

11:43
represent to you that this is a copy of Apple's

amended complaint.
11:43
If you could please turn to page 10 of

Exhibit 2102, and refer your attention to
11:43
paragraph 34. If you can please read silently while I 11:43
read aloud:
11:43
"The end result is an elegant product that is 11:43
more accessible, easier to use and much less
11:43
technically intimidating than previously available 11:43
smartphones and PDAs."
11:43
Do you see where it says that, Mr. Tan?
11:43
A Yes.
11:44
Q And do you agree that Apple's product designs 11:44
create products that are more accessible?
11:44
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
11:44

particular?

A Okay.
11:45
MR. MONACH: Same objection.
11:45
You can answer.
11:45
THE WITNESS: There -- there were -- I do
11:45
recollect vaguely some manufacturing challenges.
11:45
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And which manufacturing
11:45
challenges do you recall with respect to the original 11:45
iPhone?
11:45
A There were challenges in making a high
11:45
polish, high hardness, what we call a bezel, the -- 11:46
the metal ring that goes around the front of the
11:46
phone.
11:46
I remember manufacturing challenges in making 11:46
flat pristine glass with a lot of detailed feature
11:46
that is -- that is added into the glass itself. For 11:46
example, the opening for the receiver part, the menu 11:46
button, and also the -- the edge details on the glass. 11:46
I do remember manufacturing challenges in
11:46
making the aluminum enclosure for the back housing and 11:46
keeping to the exact geometry that is defined by the 11:46
industrial design group.

11:47
Q And you testified that Apple experienced
11:47
manufacturing constraints with respect to the bezel of 11:47
the original iPhone. Can you tell me a little bit 11:47
about those, please.
11:47
MR. MONACH: Object to the extent it slightly 11:47
misstates the prior testimony.
11:47
You can answer.
11:47
THE WITNESS: So it was very clear from the 11:47
industrial design group that they -- they wanted a
11:47
high polish ring of -- a high polish ring of steel 11:47
around the -- the glass. So we -- we had -- we had to 11:47
work closely with the manufacturers in Asia to achieve 11:47
that using -- especially using a high -- a grade of 11:47
high hardness stainless steel.
11:47
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And in working closely with 11:47
manufacturers in Asia to develop this feature, what 11:47
specific manufacturing constraints did you encounter? 11:47
A The fact that we actually had to achieve
11:48
the -- the geometry, the look that the industrial
11:48
design group was -- was pushing for.
11:48

industrial design group was pushing for created

manufacturing constraints?
11:48
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
11:48
question.
11:48
You can answer.
11:48
THE WITNESS: Yes, it's -- it's a -- it's a 11:48
complex surface that we -- it's a complex surface to 11:48
manufacture.
11:48
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And why is that?
11:48
A The geometries that were given to us by the 11:48
industrial design group were not geometric surfaces. 11:48
They are splined surfaces, so you -- it's -- it's more 11:48
challenging to make splined surfaces.
11:48
Q And what do you mean they're not geometric, 11:48
they're splined surfaces; what do you mean by that? 11:49
A So splined surfaces are surfaces that cannot 11:49
be defined by geometry, by dimensions. You can't put 11:49
a particular dimension to it. They are basically
11:49
surfaces that are indeterminate. They are -- from my 11:49
understanding of this, they are surfaces that are
11:49
complex.
11:49
So say, for example, if you have something 11:49
that looks like a circle, you could represent it as a 11:49
circle with a certain dimension, or it could be a
11:49
splined circle with subtle geometric changes. So it's 11:49

a very subtle detail in between a spline and
11:49
geometric.
11:49
So it's -- a lot of the industrial design
11:49
surfaces are splined surfaces, and we always make it 11:49
to the -- we try to make it to the industrial design 11:49
surfaces. So there are definitely manufacturing
11:50
challenges.
11:50
Q And you mentioned that you try to make it to 11:50
the industrial design surfaces. Are there instances 11:50
you can recall where you weren't capable of making it 11:50
to that industrial design team's specifications?
11:50
A Not as I can -- not that I can recollect.
11:50
We -- we make our products to the surface as 11:50
defined by industrial design. Even when it's
11:50
difficult to do it, we do it.
11:50
Q And are there any instances you can recall
11:50
where specifications from the industrial design group 11:50
were modified based on manufacturing constraints with 11:50
the original iPhone?
11:50
A Not that I can recollect.
11:50
Q And you mentioned that the industrial design 11:50
team wanted a ring of steel on the original iPhone. 11:50
Do you have an understanding as to why?
11:50
A No. I am not part of the industrial design 11:51
group, so I don't know what drove that motivation.

Q And what manufacturing constraints did Apple 11:51
experience with respect to the flat pristine glass of 11:51
the original iPhone?
11:51
A Like I mentioned, when we -- when we
11:51
manufactured this glass, there are some small details 11:51
in the glass -- for example, the opening for the
11:51
receiver and the menu button -- that required precise 11:51
manufacturing that added a lot of processes and steps. 11:51
And also, the -- because it's glass, we have 11:51
to treat the edge of the glass and add a chamfer,
11:51
subtle details that will make the -- the -- the
11:51
product according to industrial design's goal.
11:51
Q And any other such subtle details you can
11:52
think of?
11:52
MR. MONACH: Objection; form.
11:52
THE WITNESS: It had to be flat. The
11:52
industrial design wanted it to be flat.
11:52
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And were there any
11:52
manufacturing constraints or issues that Apple
11:52
encountered in the course of making the design flat? 11:52
A There are definitely challenges in making it 11:52
flat to the specification ID wanted. It was very
11:52
challenging, but we were able to do it with a lot of 11:52
work and a lot of processes.
11:52

to your knowledge, than it would have been to create a 11:52
curved glass surface for the iPhone?
11:52
MR. MONACH: Objection; vague; lack of
11:52
foundation; incomplete hypothetical.
11:52
THE WITNESS: As far as I know, we can -- we 11:52
can also fabricate curved glass. Is it more difficult 11:52
or less difficult? I am in no position to say.
11:53
MS. MCNEILL: Q. What were the manufacturing 11:53
challenges that Apple experienced with respect to the 11:53
receiver opening on the glass of the iPhone?
11:53
A If you -- if you actually looked at the
11:53
detail of the opening of the glass itself, there is a 11:53
subtle chamfer. Basically, it's a -- we call it a
11:53
chamfer, which is a bevel on the glass. And so
11:53
getting that precise angle in a glass was a challenge. 11:53
Getting it to the level of polish and finish 11:53
that the industrial design group wanted was a big
11:53
challenge.
11:53
Q And can you think of any functions served by 11:53
the chamfer that you mentioned?
11:53
MR. MONACH: Objection; vague.
11:53
THE WITNESS: As far as I know, that's -11:53
that's a detail from the industrial design group that 11:53
they found important, so we were making it according 11:53
to their -11:54

11:54
Q -- do you have any independent knowledge as 11:54
to why that feature was considered?
11:54
A Not that I know of.
11:54
Q Do you have any knowledge of the function of 11:54
the aluminum enclosure for the back housing of the 11:54
original iPhone?
11:54
MR. MONACH: Objection; vague.
11:54
THE WITNESS: I mean, we could make the
11:54
enclosure from any different material, really,
11:54
actually. Is there any functional reason why it's 11:54
aluminum? No. It was basically, again, a direction 11:54
from industrial design that they wanted it made from 11:54
aluminum.
11:54
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And were any other
11:54
materials besides glass considered for the original 11:54
iPhone?
11:54
A Yes. We -- some of the early prototypes we 11:54
actually investigated are using a plastic surface
11:55
rather than glass.
11:55
Q And why was glass ultimately chosen over
11:55
plastic?
11:55
A I have no knowledge of why they decided
11:55
ultimately to go with glass. But we did do a lot of 11:55

development with both plastic and glass, and
11:55
ultimately, the choice was to go with glass.
11:55
Q But you have no personal knowledge as to why 11:55
Apple made that choice?
11:55
A I mean, I can -- I can tell you the benefits 11:55
of -- of glass and plastic. But as to why Apple made 11:55
a decision -- why the industrial design team made a 11:55
decision, no.
11:55
Q And what are the benefits of glass versus
11:55
plastic, as you know?
11:55
A Glass is a -- is a harder surface. It's -- 11:55
it doesn't scratch as easily. But the downside to 11:55
glass is that it's a very brittle material, and when 11:56
you drop -- when you drop a glass, its likelihood of 11:56
brittle fracture is high compared to plastics, for 11:56
example.
11:56
Q And aside from it being a hard surface, more 11:56
resistant to -- more resistant to scratches, can you 11:56
think of any other benefits for glass over plastic for 11:56
the surface of a mobile phone?
11:56
A Nothing I can think of.
11:56
Q What manufacturing constraints did Apple
11:56
experience with respect to the menu button on the
11:56
original iPhone?
11:56
A Can you be more specific in manufacturing

constraints. What particular manufacturing
11:57
constraints are you referring to?
11:57
Q I'm referring to the ones that you test -11:57
you testified earlier that Apple experienced
11:57
manufacturing challenges with respect to the menu
11:57
button on the original iPhone.
11:57
A Well, I meant the -- the menu button opening 11:57
in the glass.
11:57
Q And what manufacturing constraints did Apple 11:57
experience with respect to the menu button -- menu 11:57
button opening in the glass?
11:57
MR. MONACH: Object to the slight
11:57
mischaracterizing of the prior testimony and changing 11:57
of the words.
11:57
You can answer.
11:57
THE WITNESS: Okay. So just to be clear, we 11:57
are talking about the opening of the menu button in 11:57
the glass, similar to the receiver opening in the top. 11:57
It's a hard material to add a hole through.
11:57
Also, if you -- there are some dimensional
11:57
tolerances that -- to keep dimensional tolerances in 11:57
glass exactly to the -- to the requirement that ID had 11:58
is -- is very challenging.
11:58
And also, if you look at the glass, there's a 11:58
subtle chamfer again on the top -- on the top surface. 11:58

So small details that are difficult to

add -- that are challenging to add into glass.
11:58
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And can you call -- can you 11:58
recall an instance where some of the details from the 11:58
industrial design team were altered due to
11:58
manufacturing issues or challenges?
11:58
MR. MONACH: Objection; asked and answered. 11:58
THE WITNESS: Are there any -- I mean, we -- 11:58
in the course of working with ID, we do -- we do
11:58
provide feedback on manufacturing challenges, and ID 11:58
sometimes changes just very slightly in fractions of 11:59
millimeters, just very subtle details.
11:59
But as far as I recollect, there's nothing
11:59
that comes to mind.
11:59
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And can you recall
11:59
generally any slight tweaks or changes that any
11:59
industrial design team made as a result of the
11:59
feedback that they were given about the manufacturing 11:59
process?
11:59
A None that I can recollect.
11:59
Q And can you recall the feedback that you gave 11:59
to the industrial design team with respect to the
11:59
original iPhone's bezel -- the manufacturability of 11:59
the original iPhone's bezel, I should say?
11:59
A I don't remember specific feedback that I

to the industrial design team with respect to the
12:09
substantial black borders on Apple products?
12:09
A In particular to the iPhone, I know that we 12:09
give them feedback that we could change that -- that 12:09
black border to -- to certain dimensions that they
12:09
were asking for, and we give them some options, but 12:09
ultimately, they decided what it needed to be -- what 12:09
they wanted it to be.
12:09
Q And what was the feedback that you gave them 12:09
about the borders?
12:09
MR. MONACH: Objection; asked and answered. 12:10
You can do it again.
12:10
THE WITNESS: Yeah. I mean, I especially
12:10
remember them asking us to look at different steps in 12:10
the width of the black border. We provided an
12:10
analysis, and then they ultimately decided what they 12:10
want the black border width to be.
12:10
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And did the analyses that 12:10
your team provided the industrial design team, to your 12:10
knowledge, guide their decision about how the black 12:10
border should be?
12:10
MR. MONACH: Objection; lack of foundation. 12:10
THE WITNESS: From what I recollect, it was 12:10
basically possible to do it in the different width
12:10
that they requested. It was ultimately their decision 12:10

12:10
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And did they consider your 12:10
feedback and the data that your team provided in
12:10
coming to that decision, to your knowledge?
12:10
A To my knowledge, not that I know of.
12:10
Q Can you think of another reason why they
12:10
would ask you to perform that research other than to 12:10
consider the results of it?
12:11
MR. MONACH: Object to the form of the
12:11
question as vague and calling for speculation.
12:11
THE WITNESS: Again, as to why they would ask 12:11
me, I am responsible for product design on phones, so 12:11
they wanted us to understand the manufacturing
12:11
feasibility, the design feasibility of it.
12:11
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And your understanding
12:11
about the manufacturing and design feasibility of the 12:11
black borders, is that the -- what is your
12:11
understanding about the manufacturing and design
12:11
feasibility of the black borders?
12:11
MR. MONACH: Objection; vague; asked and
12:11
answered to some degree.
12:11
You can do it again.
12:11
THE WITNESS: So from what I recollect,
12:11
basically, their request was to look at different
12:11
border width, and we provided analysis -12:11

MR. MONACH: I don't think he was finished. 12:11
Go ahead.
12:11
THE WITNESS: And it was basically the
12:11
industrial design team who ultimately decided what 12:11
they wanted.
12:12
MS. MCNEILL: Q. And what were the different 12:12
widths that were presented?
12:12
A I can't remember the specifics of the widths. 12:12
It's been a few years.
12:12
Q And can you remember any manufacturing
12:12
constraints or issues with respect to any of the
12:12
widths that the industrial design team provided you 12:12
with?
12:12
A Honestly, I can't remember, and -- yeah.
12:12
Q Directing your attention back to
12:12
Exhibit 2102, line 12, do you see where it says:
12:12
"A matrix of colorful square icons with
12:12
evenly rounded corners."
12:12
A I do see that statement on line 12, yes.
12:12
Q Did you provide any manufacturability
12:12
feedback to the industrial design team about that
12:12
aspect of Apple's product design?
12:12
A No.

You can testify to your knowledge or

recollection about the design process of the iPad? 12:13
A Do you have any -- not -12:13

12:13
development of iPad 1 and iPad 2, so...
12:13

12:13
development of a tablet computer in your early tenure 12:14
at Apple?
12:14
A Yes, I did.
12:14
Q And approximately when did you begin working 12:14
on the tablet computer?
12:14
A I can't recollect exactly, to be honest.
12:14
Q Would you recollect the general year that you 12:14
began work on the tablet computer?
12:14
A I can't recollect the exact year.
