      I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up causing more harm to Samsung, denying the people their beloved Apple products.

      To be fair apple are way to tight on their patents, but what money making organisation wouldn't be.
      It won't be banned though.

      Yeah apparently there has been an ongoing battle between the 2 companies for some time.

      Lol I could see the judge ruling in apple's favor just for the fact that he wants the new iPhone.

      Samsung was temporarily banned (the Galaxy SII) in Europe because of an Apple injunction.

      Apple will continue to sell millions of their phones regardless of Samsung's ability to sell. I don't see the huge deal but hey, I guess they want that extra couple of percent of sales that the Galaxy SII would take.

      I don't think their plan is to outsell apple. Honestly I don't think they even plan to hurt apple. Its just one of those childish "you did it to me, so now im going to do it to you". Kind of things.

      This is so retarded because for one, Samsung just delayed the release of their new phone because of Steve Jobs' death. And now they are suing his company????
      I wanted the Galaxy Nexus for my birthday assholes! Could have at least stuck to your convictions....

      I'm over reacting massively, I don't care that much. But all this suing just seems pointless. You'd think they'd waste more money than they'd make on the phone sales.
