Samsung needs to recognize that Apple bribed, stole, extorted, forced, hostile takeover, and sometimes innovated - those patents... fair and square - from their own crooked government employees looking for a handout and other nefarious means.
Samsung can't expect to just waltz in with their sleazy lawyers and splash enough cash to buy off what Apple's sleazy lawyers have already bought off.
What kind of sick world does Samsung live in?
You really need to get back on your meds! Maybe then they'll let you out of your patent's basement.
@hjb - wake up yourself! You have no idea what you are talking about.
Gush you were so quick. Obviously you have not viewed, listened nor read the links I posted. Relax and take your time, if you are not a die hard fanboy.

Perhaps you'd care to explain how drawings done before 2004 were copies of a device released in 2006?

Agree. iMac and iPod were stolen from Samsung's visionary designers back in the 90s. There was a Samsung back then, wasn't there? Oh yes, there was. I think they were making light sockets.
Maybe time for the US consumers to boycott Korean cars (off topic but boy do they look like Lexus cars these days)... oh wait, I'm sure Android users are lining up for those Kias too!
You are aware that Lexus is a Toyota brand, right?

Though you came off a bit aggressive (and on an Apple centric site that's cause for immediate ignore...some sort of defense mechanism) your points are solid.
The Tab wasn't banned for looking like an iPad...
Again.
THE TAB WAS NOT BANNED FOR LOOKING LIKE AN IPAD
It was banned for looking like a drawing of an item that doesn't exist, and was never to be created.
It was literally banned for looking like a drawing. Nothing more or less.
This Drawing:
hmmm...that's not an iPad...is it? Does that product even exist? No? Well then...how exactly could Samsung copy it?
And the OS News article was very informative, but I may have confirmation bias so if anyone can debunk it or cast doubt, feel free.
So I wonder if any of the parts Samsung sold Apple are involved in these patent infringements?
If so it may provide legal grounds for Apple to seek an immediate refund of all monies paid for parts Samsung sold them knowing that they were patent encumbered and without giving permission to use them.
Could Samsung have acted fraudulently if this is the case?

Did you just invent your own speculative sensational situation????
Though I do prefer Aluminum devices myself, depending on the quality of the plastics, plastic does just fine and Aluminum seems to be more of an unnecessary luxury at times.
That's what she said.

that would just be awesome. but I'm sure there would be structural problems.
They, patented images in 2004, do not look like Galaxy tab nor Ipad. It is more like 'tablet newspaper (1994)' see below link. I can not provide links(as I can not remember), but this patented design more resembled some tablets before 2004. Yes, in my opinion, Apple copied the design and patented and disgracefully claim as original.
Samsung has their own design developed overtime. See below images. Yes, it is a digital photo frame, not a tablet. But, my Ipad2 does a little more that this product. In this sence, I feel Apple copied this product in Ipad, I mean acctual Ipad.
Hey Apple fan readers, read following article and say what you think. Dont forget to click print icon at the end of the article to see images as well as articles.
March 7th, 2011 SAMSUNG sees the ipad2 for the first time.
The ipad2 is one-third the thickness of its predecessor at 8.8mm and also thinner than Samsung's 10.9mm Galaxy gadget announced the month prior.
"We will have to improve the parts that are inadequate," Lee Don-Joo, executive vice president of the Korean firm's mobile division, told Yonhap news agency.
Call me crazy, but Samsung had nothing like the ipad2 in production, UNTIL the ipad2 came out and they saw it. Makes it kind of hard to say Apple copied anything from Samsung, but quite easy to say the opposite. Apple innovates, Samsung imitates, while both litigate.

I like the way they "innovated" a 30 pin dock connector for their tablets.
Nothing like the one Apple has used on iPods, iPhones and iPads for around ten years, nothing like it at all, nosiree bob.
Samsung should rethink the whole tablet market and sort out their android skin. Its quite surprising that they haven't done this already. Its not like they don't have the talent to turn out some cracking consumer electronic devices like ultra thin TV's etc.
Im not a samsung fan at all ... but i think apple is going way to far and is going to pee people off from buying there products. The galaxy looks nothing like the iphone 4 and yes the galaxy is thinner than the iphone 4 overall. Competition is good but apple does not seem to like this .... We have a lot of apple products in my family but i just dont like the way apple are doing the business...
Maybe time for the US consumers to boycott Korean cars (off topic but boy do they look like Lexus cars these days)... oh wait, I'm sure Android users are lining up for those Kias too!

Was time travel involved?
Was it quantum physics?

This is what Apple has been doing. And I dont know who can defend Apple anymore.
You insult Knight Ridder and their own technical knowledge by claiming that is the iPad, never mind insulting Apple.

a) no one is claiming that is an iPad
b) even Apple isn't claiming (with the design patent) that the Tab is an iPad
c) the judge isn't even saying that the Tab is an iPad
the Tab wasn't banned for looking like an iPad
no one seems to accept that fact.

So what does your babbling, whining over a European Design patent have to do with the cases in Australia?

Nothing's been decided in Australia. So I'm not sure what you're trying to say.
This thread is a bullshitathon. And I can't tell who's winning.

So true!
