Yeah, but Nokia did it with phones first, so Apple should respect that. The same way Apple claims all sorts of things were unique and patentable because they did them on a phone touchscreen and not a PDA touchscreen (which is so TOTALLY different).
Apple has been doing colorful consumer devices for over a decade... iMacs come to mind... they do the modus operandi and they are suddenly copy someone? you have some serious tunnel vision.
You missed the obvious sarcasm in the post. Apple did colorful things before Nokia's phones, but Nokia did multi-colored phones before Apple did. And, using Apple's logic that just because it's a phone makes it different (see multiple iPhone patents that folks like Palm and Microsoft did first on PDAs and similar), that means Nokia was new and innovative and Apple copied.
