But it's not like the market punished them at all. They are still selling lots of them.

Apple is the only that held them accountable in court, at least a little it. These b*stards are shameless http://cdn.mactrast.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Samsung-A...

Your proof that "Samsung are bastards" is because they have a connector that is either a PDMI connector, or something that looks suspiciously similar?

While I don't agree with the assertion that "Samsung are bastards," they very obviously used a PDMI connector because it looked more like Apple's dock connector at the time.

Not only did they not use micro-USB like most manufacturers, I recall reading that their PDMI implementation was non-standard (i.e., not-quite-PDMI). There was no reason for them to choose such an incompatible connector other than the shape resembled an Apple connector.
