Latest in the case between Apple and Samsung where Apple are accusing Samsung for stealing ideas from iPad. A court in Australia has asked Apple for evidence of lower sales caused by the Galaxy 10.1 tablet. Apple might have to show iPad sales figures
Esato News

 Apple has been after Samsung the last couple of months. Several courts in Europe, U.S and Australia has forced Samsung to shot down the distribution of tablets and smartphones because the Samsung devices looks and behaves too similar to iPad and the iPhone. Apple claims that Samsung has copied ideas, design, packages and user interface from the i-products and that Samsung are violating Apple intellectual properties. The IFA electric trade show in Berlin last week was the latest incident where Samsung had to remove the brand new Galaxy Tab 7.7 inch tablet from the Samsung stand.Today, a court in Australia has told Apple that they will have to prove to the court that the Galaxy 10.1 tablet has hurt the sale of iPad and iPad2 in markets where the Galaxy 10.1 already are for sale. U.S and UK are some of these markets. One way this could be proven is to give the court access to the sales figures for the two iPad tablets. If Apple fails to come up with falling sales figures or other relevant information proving that the Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tablet has been the reason for lower iPad sales, the Federal Court Justice Annabelle Bennett will not be able to draw any positive assumptions of Apples claims.Samsung's lawyer told the judge that People want an Android product, so they will buy an Android product and that the Galaxy 10.1 not has hurt the sales of iPad and iPad 2. Samsung has agreed on delaying the introduction of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 to the Australian market until the end of September to let Apple get the chance to come up with a reply to the court order.source

Does Apple not realise there is something called competition out there?? Do they not realise that from many many years ago companies have always copied ideas?? It's like the bloody playground with Apple. I give you an example. I make a Blue Ray playing with 3D built in then so other manufacturers do the same. So where is the right for all them to sue?? It is pathetic. It is like Apple sitting next to Samsung or HTC in the classroom at school and saying SIR SAMSUNG IS COPYING ME. i have lost respect for Apple totally now.

Apple are burning their own bridges, one day/year this will all come to bite them horribly in the backside.

The day ALL Android OEMs decide they have had enough they may all go at Apple at once it will get very ugly for them, Apple aren't all that powerful in terms of patents and they know it.

They will run out of people and things to think of in terms of suing. Only in America eh?? Like people suing tobacco manufacturers for becoming ill. Duh I know its not the same but you get me drift.
