APPLE eBOOK Anti-Trust Trial: Summations to Judge Cote

Today the lawyers gave their summations in the US v Apple eBook anti-trust trial.
First Orin Snyder, who is the lead attorney for Apple,  gave his summation  to Judge Cote.
At the end of his presentation, an Apple iPad animation appeared on the screen with the final words from 
his summation, in the form of an eBook. The pages turned as he spoke his final words
showing off the page curl feature of the eBook. The judge took note, as did everyone else:-)
