The world is turning into something else. The copyright/patent fight
between the smartphones giant American Apple and South Korea Samsung
has come to an end with the American company taking the loot home,
claiming that Samsung copied critical features of the iPad and
iPhone. A U.S jury passed the judgement and awarded Apple a whooping
sum of $1.051 billion in damages. This ruling could lead to
an outright ban on sales of key
Samsung products and will likely solidify
Apple's dominance of the exploding
smartphone and tablet market. This is where the news gets
interesting, earlier on Friday, a South Korean court
found that both companies shared
blame, ordering Samsung to stop selling
10 products including its Galaxy S II
phone and banning Apple from selling
four different products, including its iPhone 4, this was the ruling
on Samsung home soil. Then we go to Apple's home soil we all see the
outcome (PARTIALITY). The fight began last year when Apple sued
Samsung in different countries still on the copyright and patent
issues. For those who don't know Samsung produces about 80% of
microprocessors and other parts central to Apple device.
