 It's Friday, July 27, 2012. I'm Nilay Patel. I'm very locked. I'm extremely loaded. Baby, I just want to spend 90 seconds on the verge with you. As the Apple versus Samsung case prepares to go to trial on Monday, the court has released an absolute treasure trove of evidence to the public. Among the highlights are internal Apple documents that show the company's design process, including an iPhone 4 lookalike from 2006 that was explicitly inspired by Sony. Samsung hopes the prototypes will show how Apple itself copied a number of other companies. And yes, for just one moment, the iPad almost had a kickstand. We'll let that sink in. Perhaps more interesting are internal Samsung documents that demonstrate the company's relentless focus on beating Apple. The strategy at one point is even called the Beat Apple strategy. Internal emails also point to concerns from Google and others that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was not different enough from the iPad. A particularly damning Best Buy survey showed customers were returning the Galaxy Tab because they thought it was an iPad, too. In happier news, a new Xbox Live fall update is now in public beta. Microsoft has begun rolling out the update to selected users less than 24 hours after it opened up beta registration. The new Xbox dashboard cleans up the Metro-style interface and adds both Internet Explorer 9 and the new Xbox music service to the system. We also got a brief glimpse at Smart Glass, Microsoft's new Xbox companion system for tablets and phones. You can currently connect your iPhone, iPad, or Windows Phone 7 device to the system, but that's about it. The official fall update should be rolling out to everyone in just a few months. That's it for today's top stories. Join us tomorrow for a look at the new Olympic mascots, adorable humanoid cameras, or Cyclops surveillance messengers from our dystopian future.
