"While Samsung will certainly suffer lost sales from the issuance of an injunction, the hardship to Apple of having to directly compete with Samsung’s infringing products outweighs Samsung’s harm in light of the previous findings by the Court."
A Samsung statement said: "Should Apple continue to make legal claims based on such a generic design patent, design innovation and progress in the industry could be restricted."
An Apple spokesperson said that "this kind of blatant copying is wrong and, as we’ve said many times before, we need to protect Apple’s intellectual property when companies steal our ideas," reiterating an earlier company statement. The Cupertino-based company did not say when — or even if — the bond would be posted.
Another reason why I don't buy tablets and why I would NEVER buy an Apple product either for a phone or tablet. It seems that Apple's war against Android is still going very strong with the courts sadly on their side.
How the f**k is this good for the future of computing when the average consumer is moving away from PCs and to smartphones and tablets?
