I'm of a similar mind. If the jury believes that Samsung's tablets are not selling, they might conclude that any copying being done is ineffective and not causing harm to Apple. Kinda like a "innocent by reason of incompetence" defense.
More like attempted murder vs. murder.
"Your honor, my client may have fired an entire 15 round clip at the victim, but as you can clearly see, my client is a terrible shot and the victim is in good health."
They're straight-up Unicode characters, so they should be showing up anywhere that knows what they are. But that's the problem with using a standard; not everything supports it.
It's not a "standard" if it takes certain hardware/software to read it. All that said, and you likely can't tri-force.
The real question is, if Samsung and IDC "exaggerated" tablet sales, how much are they also "exaggerating" smartphone sales. It's starting to look like Samsung is mostly smoke and mirrors. Exaggerate is a kinder word than lie but I'm thinking the "lie" shoe fits.
First, it's been well established by Korean courts that Samscum is a criminal organization.
Secondly, criminal organizations have large incomes that they wash through banks.
How convenient it is that they have money losing segments of their organization where they can claim high profits to run through the banks.
So, in conclusion, Samscum is fighting this case to continue to have a division where they can wash their ill-gotten gains from other sources.

Of course it is. So USB isn't a standard because old computers don't have USB ports? So Thunderbolt isn't a standard because PCs don't have the drivers for it? By the way…
My mom is 51 and my dad is 53, actually. They were interested in the HD displays (1920x1200) more so than the processor. My dad is tech savvy so he is familiar with the processors, actually.
Well, I'm 69 and I'm tech savvy enough to know that a watt-guzzling CPU is needed when the software and OS is not optimized for minimizing battery drain. THIS is why desktop specs don't translate over to portable devices. Brute force is dead. Long live tight programming.

I would imagine if somebody were looking to purchase an Android tablets, they would have held off until the quad-core full HD tablets came out such as the Transformer Infinity. My parents held off on tablet and phone purchases until the Galaxy SIII and Transformer Infinity came out. Then again, as far as Android tablets go, Samsung's offerings are behind compared to their competitors. Acer and ASUS have quad-core full HD tablets.
Nope they buy Amazon Kindle fires and Nexus 7's.
Quit trying to perpetuate the geeky "Android sells only high end" myth.
The fact is TouchWiz on low end hardware is "Android" for the majority.
Ah, you don't have Mountain/Lion. They both add emoji, which I use in lieu of forum emoticons because 1. there's a far FAR wider array of them for more emotions and 2. we only have one working forum emoticon.

Somewhere out there, a US citizen and Samsung supporter who bought the Galaxy Tab at full price is reading this article and realising what a total fool he/she is. :-)
Well, we know where nine (three each!) of those Galaxy Tabs went.
The 37,000 figure only represents the unit of sales of "accused" tablets. Samsung also sells windows-based tablets which haven't been accused of infringing Apple's patents for example..
Thats all that really needs to be said, "they are nothing, they lost, they are losers!" (points if you know where that is from)
Whats funny is their numbers are so poor they aren't even qualified to have lost to apple in the tablet industry, its more like they lost to the Kindle/xoom/random DOA IPAD killer.
The Chinese have soundly rejected Acer, Asus, and other Android tablets in favor of the Apple iPad which zoomed to 72.5% of the market in China in 2011. It is now clear no one in China wants cheap Taiwanese and Korean Android tablets.
"As per the survey conducted, it has been found that iPad accounts for 72.5% of China’s tablet market in 2011, while Lenovo Group Ltd. accounts for 4.7% and Samsung for 4.6% market shares."

hmm, shocking indeed... however am I alone in not wanting the tablet industry to be dominated by Apple? Don't get me wrong, the new iPad is great, but if Apple maintains a monopoly on the sector I think its going to stifle innovation. When I see Apple dominating the sector year after year i see reason to worry, not celebrate.

I don't think you know what "monpoly" means, but let's say for sake of argument you think it means "majority market share". You're worried about stagnation from a company that had a "monopoly" on its own markets: Mac and iPod? And yet Mac and iPod were innovative, kept changing annually over the past decade, staying fresh, and dropping in price, and even morphing into the iPod Touch which is more like the iPhone than a traditional iPod. Stop this "stifle innovation" nonsense. There will always be competitors/copiers trying to shoot Apple down from the top perch. This ain't Microsoft from the 90s where Microsoft got fat and uncompetitive in their dominant market position.
