What about my Samsung Galaxy Tablet? This category

"Competitors must return to the drawing board and
give their designers more creative license" Carani
said. "They have to create something completely
different as far as the visual experience, and this
election could be a great benefit to consumers." What
happens now? Does Samsung have to pay? Before the
verdict was even, industry experts predicted that an
appeal in this complex case, everyone would be safe

statement via e-mail to CNN after the verdict: "This
is not the last word out in this case or in battles in

already a lot of Apple's claims rejected." The statement
continued: "It is unfortunate that patent law can be
manipulated to give a company a monopoly over
rectangles with rounded corners." Apple was naturally
delighted with the result: "the mountain of evidence
presented during the trial showed that Samsung is
copying went far deeper than we knew." Samsung has to
be disappointed, but it has enough money to treat the
judgment of $ 1 billion with relative ease: it earned $ 12
billion last year and has $ 14 billion in cash in the bank.
