Apple Loses, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1N Not Banned in Germany

Samsung tried to go around the Galaxy Tab 10.1 ban in Germany by releasing the Galaxy Tab 10.1N, and that seems to have worked.

While Apple attempted to persuade the court that the product infringed its property and should be denied sale, the Judge thought otherwise.

This only means that there will be no preliminary injunction, though.

Apple could still, eventually, win the case and get the item banned, for all the good it would do.

By all accounts, it is more likely that Samsung will have already replaced the Galaxy Tab 10.1N with the Galaxy Tab 11.6 by then.

The next big battle is bound to go down in Australia, where Apple really let loose the dogs of war and launched an explosive legal action not long ago.
