This is certainly more legal than technical, but I've been very intrigued by the comments that the jury foreman has made to the media.

After some research, and speaking with attorneys, I think there may be a problem with the way the verdict was decided. Not that I'm trying to make a judgment on who should have won, but it seems that this foreman was a bit too excited by his role and the information he claims to possess.

Any thoughts?

That's exactly what this article is saying.

Ha, I know, I wrote the article. I think I didn't correctly articulate my first comment. What I meant to say was something like "I don't think there's any way to overlook this, and that's a problem" because many of media outlets covering the trial have not even mentioned it.

I just imagine a bunch of Apple legal team members watching the foreman's interviews and all of them simultaneously face-palming. It probably won't cost Apple the verdict, but it will cost them more time and money on appeal.
