Another dramatic effect to the patent war as has been discussed in another topic,about how Apple and Samsung have been busy handling incidents of bad blood between them, a court has issued as a verdict that Samsung's Galaxy Tablets have not infringed the copyright associated with the features of Apple's iPad. Judge Colin Birss didn't favor Apple's claim as he himself felt that there could be no violation of patent issues as Samsung's product was "not as cool as" Apple's.
What actually came as a blow to Apple was the fact that the order from the court contained a part which said that Apple had to issue a statement on its website and some other newspapers and magazines in the U.K., informing the people that Samsung had done no offensive violation of their "intellectual property" in producing their tablets.
According to the legal side defending Apple, if this step was taken, it would result in creating promotional ventures in favour of Samsung and it wasn't desirable for any company to indulge in publicity for its competition in business.Apple, however has been considering appealing against the verdict given.

Well, I think the verdict is very good and taken with sense, as it was really ridiculous, at least for me. +1 for the court

Apple realizes that they won't be able to keep up with the hype and expectations from consumers as other companies are catching up and surpassing them... so suing them would be the best way...
It's really funny how Apple can be so stingy with their ideas and yet, Apple's early successes which put them where they are now were based on copying other companies and peoples innovation!
