来自 The Verge 的消息,英国高等法院已经判决三星 Galaxy Tab 没有侵犯 iPad 专利,同时,苹果被要求向三星公开道歉。
三星随即对此事发表了一份声明:
We welcome the court’s judgment, which reaffirmed our position that our GALAXY Tab products do not infringe Apple’s registered design right. We continue to believe that Apple was not the first to design a tablet with a rectangular shape and rounded corners and that the origins of Apple’s registered design features can be found in numerous examples of prior art. Should Apple continue to make excessive legal claims in other countries based on such generic designs, innovation in the industry could be harmed and consumer choice unduly limited.
