1
TELEVISION, A MICROWAVE, ALL INTO THE SAME OUTLET
2
BECAUSE THERE'S A STANDARD.
3
NOW, IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS THAT WE
4
BEGAN TALKING TO YOU ABOUT YESTERDAY AND WE'RE
5
GOING TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF
6
WEEKS, THERE ARE STANDARDS, TOO, STANDARDS THAT
7
ALLOW PHONES TO CONNECT TO ONE ANOTHER, STANDARDS
8
THAT ALLOW PHONES TO CONNECT OVER A WIRELESS
9
NETWORK.
10
SO WHO SETS THESE STANDARDS?
11
THE EVIDENCE WILL PROVE THAT ONE STANDARD
12
ORGANIZATION IS SOMETHING CALLED ETSI, THE EUROPEAN
13
TELECOMMUNICATIONS STANDARDS INSTITUTE.
14
DEAL STANDARDS BODY.
15
MOST POPULAR STANDARDS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
16
IN THE WORLD.
IT'S A BIG
IT HELPED DEVELOP SOME OF THE
17
SAMSUNG IS A MEMBER, AND HAS BEEN.
18
APPLE IS A MEMBER.
19
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE EVIDENCE WILL
20
ESTABLISH THAT THE MEMBERS AGREE TO A SET OF RULES,
21
RULES THAT THEY WILL ALL LIVE BY, RULES THAT THEY
22
WILL ABIDE BY, RULES THAT ARE DESIGNED TO ENSURE
23
THAT PEOPLE ACT FAIRLY AND SQUARELY.
24
25
NOW, ETSI HELPED DEVELOP A STANDARD YOU
WILL LEARN CALLED UMTS.
UMTS IS SOMETIMES REFERRED
359
1
TO, AND YOU MAY HAVE SEEN IT, AS 3GPP.
2
PURPOSES, THEY ARE CLOSE TO THE SAME.
3
FOR OUR
ENGINEERS FROM DIFFERENT COMPANIES CAME
4
TOGETHER.
5
PROPOSALS.
6
STANDARD, WHAT WAS GOING TO BE THEIR EQUIVALENT OF
7
THE SOCKET.
8
9
10
THEY DISCUSSED DIFFERENT TECHNICAL
THEY DECIDED WHAT TO INCLUDE IN THE
AND THE GOAL WAS TO COME UP WITH A
STANDARD THAT EVERYBODY COULD USE TOGETHER AND IT
WOULD PROMOTE COMPETITION.
11
NOW, SAMSUNG CLAIMS THAT THE TWO PATENTS,
12
THE '941 AND THE '516, ARE ESSENTIAL TO USING UMTS.
13
SAMSUNG IS GOING TO TELL YOU IN JUST A FEW MINUTES
14
THAT IF YOU USE UMTS, YOU USE THESE PATENTS AND YOU
15
INFRINGE.
WELL, WHAT'S THE EVIDENCE GOING TO SHOW
16
17
YOU ABOUT THIS ARGUMENT?
18
FIRST, THE EVIDENCE IS GOING TO SHOW THAT
19
"DECLARED ESSENTIAL" MEANS SIMPLY THAT SAMSUNG HAS
20
SAID SO.
21
THE EVIDENCE WILL ESTABLISH THAT NO ONE,
22
NOT ETSI, NOT ANYONE ELSE, HAS EVER DECIDED THAT
23
THAT'S, IN FACT, TRUE.
24
25
YOU WILL BE THE FIRST PEOPLE TO DECIDE
WHETHER SAMSUNG'S STATEMENT THAT ITS PATENTS WERE
360
1
ESSENTIAL IS TRUE.
2
WE WILL CALL PROFESSORS EDWARD KNIGHTLY
3
FROM RICE AND PROFESSOR HYONG KIM FROM CARNEGIE
4
MELLON UNIVERSITY, TWO VERY WELL KNOWN AND
5
REPUTABLE COMPUTER SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS, AND
6
THEY WILL EXPLAIN TO YOU THAT THEY HAVE LOOKED AT
7
SAMSUNG'S PATENTS AND THEY ARE, IN FACT, NOT
8
ESSENTIAL TO UMTS, THAT, IN FACT, APPLE DOES NOT
9
USE THEM.
10
BUT SECOND, YOU WILL ALSO LEARN THAT THE
11
ENTIRE UMTS STANDARD IS THOUSANDS OF PAGES LONG.
12
IF I HAD IT IN THIS COURTROOM, IT WOULD GO FROM
13
HERE TO THAT WALL AND PROBABLY BACK AGAIN.
14
OUT OF THAT ENTIRE SPECIFICATION, YOU
15
WILL LEARN, THESE TWO PATENTS, EVEN UNDER SAMSUNG'S
16
CONTENTIONS, RELATE TO TWO PAGES.
17
NOW, I'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU JUST WHAT IT IS
18
IN THE IPHONE THAT SAMSUNG SAYS INFRINGES THESE TWO
19
PATENTS THAT IS ESSENTIAL TO WIRELESS
20
COMMUNICATIONS.
21
I HAVE ANOTHER IPHONE.
MR. MCELHINNY HAD
22
ONE.
23
SEE -- YOU'LL SEE SEVERAL OF THESE DURING THE
24
COURSE OF THE TRIAL -- ARE THE INSIDES.
25
I'VE TAKEN OFF THE BACK AND WHAT YOU'LL
BUT UNDERNEATH THE BLACK THAT I'M SHOWING
361
1
YOU NOW IS A HOST OF A COMPUTER CHIP AND THE
2
CONNECTIONS AND THE COMPONENTS THAT MAKE THE IPHONE
3
THE MAGICAL DEVICE THAT IT IS (INDICATING).
4
IF I WERE TO PULL OFF THIS BLACK, YOU CAN
5
SEE AT THE TOP RIGHT HERE, IF I WERE TO PULL THAT
6
OFF, YOU WOULD GET WHAT'S CALLED THE MOTHERBOARD
7
(INDICATING).
8
9
AND YOU CAN SEE ON THE MOTHERBOARD A
SERIES OF CHIPS, A SERIES OF CONNECTIONS, ALL OF
10
WHICH CONTRIBUTE TO WHAT MR. MCELHINNY DESCRIBED TO
11
YOU.
12
NOW, YOU CAN'T SEE IT NOW -- WE'LL PASS
13
THIS TO YOU WHEN IT GOES INTO EVIDENCE -- BUT I
14
HAVE TWO LITTLE DOTS HERE, AND RIGHT ABOVE THOSE
15
TWO LITTLE DOTS, I'M PUTTING MY FINGER ON THIS
16
LITTLE SQUARE HERE, NOT EVEN AS BIG AS MY FINGER.
17
WHAT IS THAT?
THAT'S THE BASEBAND
18
PROCESSOR.
19
INTEL.
20
AND A HOST OF OTHER DIFFERENT CUSTOMERS.
21
DEVICE THAT ACTUALLY PERFORMS WHAT SAMSUNG SAYS IS
22
INFRINGING, THE INTEL CHIP.
23
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT APPLE BUYS FROM
IT'S SOMETHING THAT INTEL MAKES FOR APPLE
IT IS THE
IT IS A CHIP, IT IS A CHIP THAT APPLE
24
BUYS FOR AROUND $10 APIECE, AND I'D ASK YOU TO KEEP
25
THAT IN MIND BECAUSE I'M GOING TO COME BACK TO THE
362
1
AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT SAMSUNG IS ASKING ON THESE TWO
2
PATENTS.
3
NOW, I EXPECT THAT IN A FEW MINUTES, I'M
4
SURE IN A FEW MINUTES SAMSUNG IS GOING TO GET UP
5
AND SAY, "WE PLAYED AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN DEVELOPING
6
THIS CELLULAR TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM.
7
PATENTS THAT ARE IN THIS BASEBAND PROCESSOR YOU BUY
8
FROM INTEL WERE OURS AND CRITICAL TO THE
9
INFORMATION HIGHWAY."
10
THESE
WELL, LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT ONE OF THE
11
HEADS OF SAMSUNG'S LICENSING DEPARTMENT, A
12
GENTLEMAN NAMED DR. AHN, TESTIFIED UNDER OATH ON
13
THIS VERY ISSUE.
14
DR. AHN REPORTS DIRECTLY TO THE CHIEF
15
EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF SAMSUNG AND HERE'S WHAT HE
16
SAID.
17
"DO YOU HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE AS TO WHETHER
18
OR NOT SAMSUNG PLAYED AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN
19
DEVELOPING THE CELLULAR TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM?
20
"ANSWER:
NO, I DO NOT REALLY KNOW."
21
THE DIRECT REPORT TO THE CEO WAS ASKED
22
THAT QUESTION WHEN THIS CASE BEGAN AND THE ANSWER
23
WAS I DON'T KNOW.
24
25
NOW, WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO LEARN IS THAT
SAMSUNG DID PARTICIPATE IN THIS RULE-BASED STANDARD
363
1
SETTING PROCESS, AND WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO LEARN IS
2
THAT IN DOING SO, SAMSUNG ACTUALLY BROKE THE RULES,
3
THE RULES THAT WERE ADOPTED TO ENSURE THE STANDARD
4
PROCESS WAS FAIR AND SQUARE.
5
6
NOW, WHAT WERE THOSE RULES?
THERE WERE
TWO.
7
THE FIRST RULE IS THE RULE THAT REQUIRES
8
EVERYONE WHO HAS A PATENT THAT THEY SAY MIGHT BE
9
ESSENTIAL TO THE STANDARD TO DISCLOSE IT.
10
WHAT WILL THE EVIDENCE SHOW IS THE
11
REASON?
12
OF THE WALL SOCKET.
13
THINK ABOUT MY SIMPLE EXAMPLE OF THE PLUG,
IF I HAD A PATENT APPLICATION, A SECRET
14
PATENT APPLICATION LIKE THE VIDEO TOLD YOU ON A
15
WALL SOCKET, AND I THEN WENT TO THE STANDARD AND
16
SAID, "LET'S ALL GET TOGETHER, THE TEN OF US, AND
17
ADOPT AS A STANDARD THIS PARTICULAR CONFIGURATION,"
18
AND WE ALL GOT TOGETHER, THE TEN OF US, AND WE
19
ADOPTED THIS CONFIGURATION, AND THEN EVERYBODY IN
20
THE WORLD MADE THEIR WALL SOCKETS THAT WAY, AND
21
THEN A FEW YEARS LATER, I SAID, "I FORGOT TO TELL
22
YOU.
23
ME."
24
25
I HAVE A PATENT AND NOW YOU ALL HAVE TO PAY
WELL, ETSI HAS RULES TO PREVENT JUST
THAT, AND YOU WILL SEE RULE 4.1, AND I'M GOING TO
364
1
FOCUS YOU JUST ON THE SECOND SENTENCE WHICH SAYS,
2
"IN PARTICULAR, A MEMBER SUBMITTING A TECHNICAL
3
PROPOSAL FOR A STANDARD SHALL, ON A BONA FIDE
4
BASIS, DRAW THE ATTENTION OF ETSI TO ANY OF THAT
5
MEMBER'S IPR WHICH MIGHT BE ESSENTIAL IF THAT
6
PROPOSAL IS ADOPTED."
7
THREE THINGS YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT THAT VERY
8
IMPORTANT SIMPLE SENTENCE.
9
PATENTS AND PATENT APPLICATIONS, INTELLECTUAL
10
PROPERTY RIGHTS.
11
THE FIRST IS IPR MEANS
IT INCLUDES BOTH.
THE SECOND IS IT SAYS IF THAT MIGHT BE
12
ESSENTIAL, AND THE THIRD IS IT SAYS IF THE PROPOSAL
13
IS ADOPTED.
14
15
SO IT MEANS BEFORE THE FOLKS HAVE SETTLED
ON THE WALL SOCKET.
THE EVIDENCE WILL DEMONSTRATE THAT
16
17
SAMSUNG IGNORED THIS RULE.
IT FILED PATENT
18
APPLICATIONS WHICH WERE KEPT SECRET.
IT THEN WENT TO STANDARDS BODY AND MADE
19
20
PROPOSALS THAT IT THOUGHT WERE COVERED BY ITS
21
PATENTS.
22
"IF YOU HAVE PATENTS OR PATENT APPLICATIONS,
23
DISCLOSE THEM," AND THEY DID NOT.
24
25
IT SAT IN THE ROOM WHEN THE CHAIR SAID,
THE CHRONOLOGY WILL BE UNDISPUTED -- I'M
GOING TO PUT IT ON THE SCREEN NOW -- FOR BOTH OF
481
1
ALREADY HAS THE PERSPECTIVE SET UP AND THE VIEWS IN
2
A WAY THAT YOU CAN SORT OF ADD IN LAVISH DETAIL
3
UPON THEM.
4
Q
5
DOCUMENT, PX 163, TO WHAT DO THEY RELATE?
6
A
7
8
AND WHAT DO THE SKETCHES ON THIS PARTICULAR
THESE ARE SKETCHES OF IPHONE IDEAS.
MR. MCELHINNY:
YOUR HONOR, I WOULD MOVE
PX 163, PLEASE.
9
MR. VERHOEVEN:
NO OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.
10
THE COURT:
ALL RIGHT.
SO ADMITTED.
11
(WHEREUPON, PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT NUMBER
12
163, HAVING BEEN PREVIOUSLY MARKED FOR
13
IDENTIFICATION, WAS ADMITTED INTO
14
EVIDENCE.)
15
BY MR. MCELHINNY:
16
Q
SIR, IF YOU'D OPEN YOUR BINDER TO PX 164.
17
A
YES, I SEE IT.
18
Q
WHAT IS PX 164?
19
A
THE FIRST PAGE IS A SCREEN SHOT OF A
20
DIRECTORY, WHICH IS THE CAD FILE DATABASE.
21
LISTS DATE MODIFIED, WHICH MEANS THE LAST DATE THAT
22
YOU WORKED ON THIS PARTICULAR FILE.
23
24
25
IT
AND ALSO A CODE NAME, A THREAD.
BASICALLY, THAT HELPS YOU FIND IT IN THE DATABASE.
SUBSEQUENT PAGES ARE SCREEN SHOTS OF
482
1
THESE CAD MODELS.
2
Q
3
SOMETHING ABOUT A CAD OUTPUT.
4
WERE REFERRING TO AS A CAD OUTPUT?
5
A
6
SOPHISTICATION.
7
I WOULD CALL CAD OUTPUT.
8
Q
9
DATE OF THESE DRAWINGS?
YOU MENTIONED IN AN EARLIER ANSWER, YOU SAID
YES.
IS THIS WHAT YOU
THERE ARE VARYING DEGREES OF
THIS IS A FAIRLY CRUDE SET OF WHAT
CAN YOU TELL, BY LOOKING AT THE DIRECTORY, THE
10
A
MARCH 15TH, 2006.
11
Q
AND, SIR, DO YOU -- DO YOU WORK WITH THE --
12
LET ME ASK YOU THIS:
13
CAD SYSTEM?
14
A
NO, I DO NOT.
15
Q
WHO DOES THE CAD DRAWINGS AT APPLE?
16
A
WE HAVE A DEDICATED TEAM OF CAD SCULPTORS.
17
THERE ARE A FEW DESIGNERS THAT ARE CAPABLE OF
18
CREATING CAD THEMSELVES, BUT IT'S NOT A
19
REQUIREMENT.
20
DO YOU PERSONALLY OPERATE THE
IN FACT, MOST OF US DON'T.
IT'S -- IT REALLY IS A SKILL THAT YOU
21
NEED TO DEDICATE SIGNIFICANT TIME TO JUST TO
22
UNDERSTAND THE CRAFT OF CAD.
23
24
25
SO WE PREFER OUR DESIGNERS TO BE
THINKING, SO WE HAVE A DEDICATED TEAM FOR THIS.
MR. MCELHINNY:
YOUR HONOR, I WOULD MOVE
483
1
PX 164 INTO EVIDENCE.
2
MR. VERHOEVEN:
3
THE COURT:
4
(WHEREUPON, PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT NUMBER
5
164, HAVING BEEN PREVIOUSLY MARKED FOR
6
IDENTIFICATION, WAS ADMITTED INTO
7
EVIDENCE.)
8
Q
SO ADMITTED.
BY MR. MCELHINNY:
9
NO OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.
SO AFTER CAD MODELS, WHAT COMES NEXT, SIR, IN
10
A DESIGN PROCESS, ASSUMING THAT YOU WERE GOING
11
LINEARLY AS OPPOSED TO JUMPING BACKWARDS?
12
A
13
PURSUE AN IDEA THAT WE SEE IN THE CAD SURFACES IN
14
PHYSICAL FORM, WE MODEL IT, WHICH IS TO CNC,
15
COMPUTER NUMERICALLY CONTROLLED.
IF WE FIND THAT WE AGREE, THAT WE WANT TO
THAT IS THREE OR FIVE MACHINING, WHICH
16
17
ESSENTIALLY CUTS FROM A SOLID BLOCK A PHYSICAL
18
LIKENESS OF WHAT WE BUILD IN CAD.
19
Q
20
THAT AN ACCURATE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS THAT
21
LED TO THE ORIGINAL IPHONE?
22
A
YES.
23
Q
AND IS IT AN ACCURATE DESCRIPTION OF THE
24
PROCESS THAT LED TO THE IPAD?
25
A
THIS PROCESS THAT YOU'VE DESCRIBED FOR US, IS
YES.
484
1
Q
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE IPHONE FOR A MINUTE.
2
WHAT -- IF YOU CAN DESCRIBE IT FOR US,
3
WHAT, IF ANYTHING, WERE YOU TRYING TO ACHIEVE IN
4
DESIGNING THE IPHONE?
5
A
6
BEAUTIFUL OBJECT, SOMETHING THAT WOULD REALLY WOW
7
THE WORLD.
WE -- WE WERE LOOKING FOR A NEW, ORIGINAL, AND
8
9
WE WERE ENTERING A CATEGORY THAT WE'D
NEVER PARTICIPATED IN BEFORE, AND THE CATEGORY THAT
10
WE DID NOT ENJOY.
11
THERE WERE NO CELL PHONES THAT
WE LOVED.
12
SO THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT WE REALLY
13
CARED DEEPLY AND PASSIONATELY ABOUT, PRODUCING
14
SOMETHING FOR OURSELVES.
WE -- AS ALWAYS, WE WANTED TO CREATE
15
16
SOMETHING THAT SEEMED SO, SO WONDERFUL THAT YOU,
17
YOU CAN'T IMAGINE HOW YOU COULD FOLLOW IT.
18
OF COURSE, YOU CAN BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT
19
THE HISTORY OF OUR PRODUCTS, WE'VE DONE THAT TIME
20
AND TIME AGAIN.
21
BUT YOU WANT TO CREATE THE SIMPLEST,
22
PUREST MANIFESTATION OF WHAT THAT OBJECT CAN BE,
23
SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE CAN LOVE.
24
Q
25
WORKED ON THE DESIGN OF THE IPHONE?
DO YOU RECALL APPROXIMATELY HOW LONG YOU
485
1
A
I HAVE NO IDEA.
I'D HAVE TO LOOK AT
2
DOCUMENTATION FOR THIS.
3
Q
YEARS?
4
A
I THINK SO.
5
Q
LET ME SHOW YOU PX 165.
BUT IT WAS A LONG TIME.
6
MAY I APPROACH, YOUR HONOR?
7
THE COURT:
8
MR. MCELHINNY:
9
THE WITNESS:
YES.
(HANDING).
THANK YOU.
10
BY MR. MCELHINNY:
11
Q
WHAT IS PX 165, SIR?
12
A
THIS IS ONE OF THE EARLY MODELS THAT WE BUILT
13
ON M68, WHICH WAS A CODE NAME THAT WE USED FOR THE
14
ORIGINAL IPHONE.
15
Q
I'M SORRY.
16
A
THAT'S CORRECT.
17
Q
WHEN YOU SAY "WE BUILT THIS MODEL," WHO ARE
18
YOU TALKING ABOUT?
19
A
20
WOULD INCLUDE THE CAD AND THE MODEL MAKING TEAMS.
21
Q
22
THIS ORIGINAL APPLE WORK?
23
A
24
25
THAT'S M68?
"WE" BEING THE INDUSTRIAL DESIGN GROUP, WHICH
AND IS THIS MODEL THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT, WAS
ABSOLUTELY, YES.
MR. MCELHINNY:
YOUR HONOR, I WOULD MOVE
EXHIBIT PX 165 INTO EVIDENCE.
486

2
MR. VERHOEVEN:
I HAVE A POINT OF
QUESTION.
3
CAN I CONFER WITH COUNSEL?
4
THE COURT:
5
(DISCUSSION OFF THE RECORD BETWEEN
6
YES, GO AHEAD, PLEASE.
COUNSEL.)
7
MR. VERHOEVEN:
SUBJECT TO YOUR HONOR'S
8
RULING, YOUR HONOR'S ALREADY RULED ON THESE
9
DOCUMENTS -- I DON'T KNOW IF WE CAN HAVE A
10
SIDE-BAR, YOUR HONOR.
11
DON'T WAIVE ANYTHING.
12
13
THE COURT:
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I
OKAY.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS
WORKED OUT BEFORE THE JURY CAME OUT.
14
LET'S DO THAT.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE
15
MICROPHONE IS NOT WORKING, SO WE'LL HAVE TO
16
MEMORIALIZE IT AFTER.
17
LET'S GO AHEAD.
18
MR. VERHOEVEN:
19
(SIDE-BAR DISCUSSION OFF THE RECORD.)
20
THE COURT:
THAT'S OKAY.
OKAY.
THE -- I UNDERSTAND
21
THAT THE SAME OBJECTION WAS RESERVED, BUT IT'S
22
OVERRULED.
23
THIS IS ADMITTED.
24
(WHEREUPON, PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT NUMBER
25
165, HAVING BEEN PREVIOUSLY MARKED FOR
487
1
IDENTIFICATION, WAS ADMITTED INTO
2
EVIDENCE.)
3
THE COURT:
4
MR. MCELHINNY:
5
GO AHEAD.
THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.
MAY I PUBLISH THIS TO THE JURY?
6
THE COURT:
7
(PAUSE IN PROCEEDINGS.)
8
BY MR. MCELHINNY:
9
Q
GO AHEAD.
MR. STRINGER, LET ME SHOW YOU AN EXHIBIT
10
THAT'S BEEN MARKED AS PX 166 (HANDING).
11
A
YES.
12
Q
WHAT IS THAT DEVICE, SIR?
13
A
THIS IS ALSO AN EARLY IPHONE MODEL, ALSO UNDER
14
ITSELF CODE NAME M68.
15
Q
IS IT THE SAME OR DIFFERENT THAN THE 165?
16
A
SIMILAR, BUT DIFFERENT.
17
Q
OKAY.
18
SIR?
19
A
APPLE PROTO 1015 -- OH, IPOD.
20
Q
AND WHY DOES IT SAY IPOD ON A PROTOTYPE OF AN
21
IPHONE, SIR?
22
A
23
COINED THE TERM "IPHONE" AND WE WANTED TO SEE
24
SOMETHING GRAPHICALLY REPRESENTED ON THE BACK; OR
25
WE WERE TRYING TO DISGUISE ITS IPHONE IDENTITY.
AND WHAT DOES IT SAY ON THE BACK OF IT,
ONE OF TWO REASONS.
