Apple-Samsung drama was pretty quiet in Australia, compared to the buzz it created in Europe until today when Apple argues that the Australian version 10.1 tab Galaxy also violates patents Apple. Samsung originally tried to circumvent Australian GalTab ban on the grounds that it was version intended for the United States, and that the Australian version is different.

Samsung, Apple, and the rest of us all to know that it's just a Hail Mary prayer style, that the Australian version is somehow different enough from the United States version of the slide past violations of the territory. But … c'mon. 10.1 Tab Galaxy is a Galaxy tab 10.1 and that is exactly how felt Apple. The number and type of violation of the requirements, Apple will do is still unknown, because the company just got their hands on the Australian versions on Thursday last week. But according to the morning Herald Sydney, Apple's lawyers claimed that Australian GalTab "some limited functionality", but it would still violate. "

And if this were not enough, Samsung said, will present their own Australian patent infringement lawsuit against Apple's iPad. That is pretty awful News considering that these two basically took their fight in the United States, Europe and Australia, leaving after a disgruntled clients and rich lawyers in its footprint. But it's a completely different claim on completely the other day and really not saying which patents, Samsung will throw out to make a dent in his enemy armor.

What is important now is that Apple's complaint, which keeps the Australians from 10.1 GalTab party. Slate was originally scheduled to begin August 11, or at least, is the date for Samsung in newsworthy events. Apple ruined that fun arguing that (United States) version was infringing on its patents "appearance and touch screen technology and asked the Court to block GalTab to take a formal decision.

When Samsung replied that the Australian GalTab in the works, Apple decided to examine three model said GalTab to determine whether a violation is still a problem. Obviously it's still a problem, and so Apple has asked the Court not only to reaffirm the prohibition on the version of the United States, but in order to prevent the sale in the Australian version of Samsung.

Samsung originally claimed this as the company plans to begin selling the device 12 September. Eventually they came to their senses when Justice Annabelle Bennett confirmed that may not be a lot of startup logic only to slate, pulled off the shelves in a couple of weeks. Then Samsung counsel decided to hold off on running until 30 September.

On Friday, Apple will not go into detail on each of the patents that allegedly violates the Samsung and 5 September, the company will release more in-depth presentation of the facts. After Samsung has the ability to deny official hearings will take place September 26 and 29.

Justice Annabelle Bennett, though she owns the iPad said she may need help in determining the actual requirements of patents and how they relate to each tablet. And we don't blame her. Have you ever been through a patent? It was not easy. At the same time, Samsung will prepare his counter-argument, which likely will include video clips and images from 2001: a space Odyssey. Samsung tablet in the film as "prior art" for Tablet design in the United States claim that can effectively get Samsung off the hook.

And we sincerely hope that he does. Not because we are at Samsung's side, or Apple for that matter, but because we really just ready for this mess over. The fight lasts about four months, spread across three continents, and it doesn't look like he slowed down at all. In the end will survive Apple and Samsung. This innocent consumers who lose big.

Started by Steve jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, Apple has expanded from computers to consumer electronics over the past 30 years, officially change their name from Apple Computer.

Samsung Galaxy S (II) United States options pose for the camera

We have heard quite a bit about the Galaxy S, which isn't all that surprising, seeing that he has sold 3 million units in its first 55 on the market. As people from other parts of the world have gained experience that amazing is we GSII here in the States played the game. But this is so close, I almost can try cookies.

29 August Samsung finally opens GSII United States iterations in the Big Apple for T-Mobile, Sprint and AT&T. If you haven't heard already, Verizon spends on GSII. Prior to this event, this image has been leaked PocketNow, which shows all three little animals, posing for the camera.

They are a bit different in design, especially the Hercules T-Mobile. If it is true that we had previously heard about Bogatyr, T-Mobile Galaxy S II will sport more 4.5 inch Super AMOLED display plus compared to the original GSII 4.3 inch screen.

Of course the T-Mobile version may not be called Bogatyr. We actually don't know that any of the carrier's name, although we are sure will have heard a lot: reach (AT&T), within (Sprint), function (Verizon) and even the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4 G touch (also Sprint?). What a nasty mouth, right?

In any case, it doesn't matter what the phone is called because this will be a hit no matter what. Just take a look at the specs: 1.2 GHz processor with dual-core, Android, gingerbread, TouchWiz 2.3.4 4.0, 8-meagapixel Chamber back (1080p video capture), 2-megapixel front facing arrows and Super AMOLED 4.3 inch 480 × 800 plus display.

Of course, things like screen size can vary from one carrier to the next (read: "Hercules"), but all in all those who should be the specification, we're looking at. There is also one small change in the United States, compared with the international version, which will be the loss of this snazzy little button home. Instead, the phones sport the same four buttons which we are accustomed to Android.

Samsung's pre-IFA Unpacked app is usually very dry, with regard to the content: there is an event calendar and press releases abound, but some interesting Android fans discovered some juicy new tidbits, deep inside the application inside.

This is my next messages after a little poking around in application content, logos for 7.7 Tab Galaxy Samsung Samsung Galaxy Samsung wave 3 Note and everyone noticed. Galaxy tab is probably the easiest of the bunch: it's the nearest Samsung came to review the initial GalTab pocketable sizes, but I hope works cellular as big brothers.

Wave 3 is supposedly Bada powered handset, and may also be one, spotted the leaked roadmap with a few weeks ago. Wave series were the Samsung flagship device for OS Bada boom probable cause, so the leaked specifications (4 Super AMOLED display, Bada 2.0, 5 MP camera, 3 GB of on-board storage) may hold a really come September.

The most intriguing new note Galaxy; the name seems to imply (at least for me)-based pen La HTC flyer/View 4 G, but it may well be another Smartphone Samsung will be added to its inventory.

Samsung Unpacked recommended that users can update the square Come September 1, most likely, the concretization of these and other upcoming devices with some official details. Here's hoping that even earlier than this is yet another update-who knows what surprises can lay hidden inside?

Samsung's Galaxy S II hit T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&T, but not Verizon?

After what felt like forever for many Android fan Samsung Galaxy S II finally is set to touch United States. Come next Monday, Samsung will spill the details around the Galaxy S II United States launch.

Start date and its positioning as the flagship of the Android mobile phone, it's almost inevitable that Galaxy S II will be spun as a big competitor iPhone 5's — and in this battle, Samsung will need the support of so many of the carrier, as it can get. Alas, it looks like they will have to continue without the support of the world's largest carrier: Verizon.

According to a report out from the Wall Street Journal, Verizon will be overweight in the Galaxy S II game. AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint will all be part of the big launch event, while Verizon plans to continue pushing the device already in their portfolio.

Of course, this is contrary to earlier rumors (though we left unreported seemed a bit too shaky) that Verizon will be the first in the United States to get Galaxy S II, running it under the name "functions". It's just how things are going, when you live life around the rumor mill.

It's not as if Samsung could not build Verizon-friendly Galaxy S II; they already support CDMA, if they plan to launch the Sprint version, and they build phones that work with Verizon's LTE network since April — so why Verizon might pass up the long-awaited device? Blame it on the dates: Verizon knows comes a new iPhone, and all signs 8 September launch of Verizon's other major Android phone, long, long delay Bionic Droid. The carrier may only split their marketing love so many ways.

Update: with Verizon, we confirmed that, at least at the present time, they do not intend to carry the Galaxy S II.

Apple's European Galaxy tab ban evidence seriously Misleading ... As in the False

Last week Apple patent brawl takes a serious turn-Samsung after Apple got a preliminary injunction prohibiting the sale of 10.1 tab galaxies throughout the European Union, with the exception of the Netherlands. As we have already pointed out, Samsung had no idea all this is going to issue an injunction, as is standard procedure in the German judicial system. South Korea-company knew they probably would have mentioned that evidence Apple is used to obtain the import (pictured left) ban was quite serious shortcomings.

According to Dutch IDG publication from the Webwereld. nl image used for side-by-side comparison between the iPad and 2 GalTab 10.1 is either incorrect or manipulated. On page 28 of Apple filing cropped image of the Galaxy and the ratio of the image tab 10.1 have been tampered with. Samsung tablet measures at 10.1 in x 6.9 in x 0.34 in, and the size of the iPad sports 2 in x 9.5 in x 34 7.31. in.

So if you looked at the pill-parallel (both in portrait position), you would notice that the iPad 2 is a little broader from side to side, but shorter in length. Based on the specified dimensions, proportions GalTab to 1.46. In Apple's evidence the image aspect ratio 1.36 (8 percent wider than it should be) making 10.1 's Galaxy "appearance tab" Watch "virtually identical" to the iPad 2 (which has the aspect ratio of 1.30). And this is precisely the language of the Apple in his complaint, also on page 28.

We've seen our fair share of counsel screw-ups lately, but it's pretty shady, no? The current ban on the import of the GalTab entirely due to the design, so the Court really judging these books by their covers. Introducing evidence that falsely represents the appearance of the product — especially when the injunction was based solely on hardware design is incredibly suspect, to say the least. Add to this the fact that Apple has some serious time with the judge, in providing this evidence. In the meantime, Samsung did not even have the opportunity to challenge image.

Whether or not intentional deception, "and the truth" of evidence is required in the German judicial system. On the surface it doesn't look good for Apple. It's quite possible that the image that they used GalTab is outdated preview image. Despite the fact that false testimony was presented at all makes Apple look sneaky or weak. Snweaky. In addition, this error can affect the outcome of the case, according to PC World interview with Florian Mueller, a German IP consultatnt.

Apple blocks sales of Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tab in the EU, Motorola Xoom?

Back in April, when he was just a bunch of harsh words and vicious threats beef between Samsung and Apple was very entertaining. But only funny until someone gets hurt and this time it is Europe that will feel the pain. In its infinite tiff with Samsung, the South Korean-based Apple won an interim order block sales of 10.1 Galaxy tab within the whole European Union, after deduction of the Netherlands.

Strange is the fact that Samsung seems to have no idea all this was going down until it is too late. In particular, the order was given "without any hearings or evidence from Samsung," said spokesman Kim Titus Samsung, who confirmed to Bloomberg. Apparently, it's pretty normal in Germany, the plaintiffs must only prove that the violation occurred to obtain orders rolling, provisional or permanent basis without the need to inform the other party. However, the Court grants preliminary injunction only often (like this) when it considered that subsequent permanent ban will be provided as well. If this is not and Apple loses, the Cupertino-based company will certainly have to Samsung.

According to German news service DPA this prohibition relates entirely to design and intellectual property rights, and not patents related to software or hardware. Apple made clear long before anything went down in Europe that he was not happy with the appearance of GalTab 10.1 and even went as far as to say that the Samsung copied Apple style packaging, too. The word "humbly" comes to mind. But there's still a little Sliver of hope for our European friends, who was just dying to play around with Samsung in 10-inch slate. Galaxy tabs in stock will continue to sell until the current inventory is gone. So if you want, just leave now. Not even to keep reading.

I mean it. .. Go!

In any case, Samsung has responded to the ban, promising "to act quickly to protect our intellectual property rights through ongoing trials in Germany and will continue to defend these rights throughout the world. We will take all necessary measures to ensure the Samsung innovative mobile communication devices are available for customers in Europe and in the world. "

In the meantime Apple seems to have moved to yet another competitor, SlashGear. Motorola and Apple closely for the past few months, but only after digging into the Galaxy tab News she discovered that Apple has already filed a complaint with the European design cell powered Xoom. Since Samsung does not know this prohibition has survived, it is very likely that Motorola just becomes aware of this now, as it is distributed across the Internet. Speculation suggests that Apple is going straight for a permanent ban from Motorola, Xoom has been around long enough for him.

Started by Steve jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, Apple has expanded from computers to consumer electronics over the past 30 years, officially change their name from Apple Computer.
