German court extends Galaxy Tab 7.7 injunction to encompass the E.U., but denies Apple’s appeal to ban the Galaxy Tab 10.1N
Just a couple of days ago, the US appeals court upheld the ban of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Samsung’s ongoing legal battle with Apple. Well the good news is that if you’re living in Europe and the Galaxy Tab 10.1N (essentially the same as the Galaxy Tab 10.1 with some physical design changes) is a tablet you were planning on getting, the German courts have recently denied Apple’s appeal to ban the Galaxy Tab 10.1N from being sold. However the bad news is that the courts have ruled that the injunction of the Galaxy Tab 7.7 will be extended across the entire E.U. According to Samsung, “Samsung is disappointed with the court’s ruling. We will continue to take all available measures, including legal action, to protect our intellectual property rights and defend against Apple’s claims to ensure our products remain available to consumers throughout the European Union.” We guess you can’t win them all! For our readers in the E.U., is the ban of the Galaxy Tab 7.7 a big loss to you, or have you moved on to other brands like the Nexus 7 tablet, perhaps?
