   Wow, that's a lot of money for a little buzz. I mean what could possibly be such sacred knowledge that a vibration could even be patentable.

   You spin a unbalanced thing in a circle and it creates a vibration. Make it less unbalanced and you get a smoother vibration.

      For the same reason that "rounded corners" was patentable I guess. Now all things being equal of course Apple should pay as Samsung has in the past.
