Avoid Apple accuses Galaxy Tab of modifying design and rename

According to foreign media reports, in order to bypass Apple's patent infringement accusations, Samsung Electronics revised the design of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 touch-screen tablet PC and renamed it as Galaxy Tab 10.1N, re-listing in Germany. The new product tries to avoid the design-related intellectual property owned by Apple. Florian Mueller of FOSS Patents pointed out that the newly designed tablet has a metal frame that encloses “all the edges and extends to the blank part of the front edge of the product”.

He said: "I am not saying that this product will definitely avoid the allegation of infringement. This is decided by the court. But there is no doubt that Samsung has raised the difficulty of applying for a new ban by Apple and its lawyers, or recriminating Samsung with the allegation that it is now infringing." . Germany has become an important battleground between Samsung and Apple. Last week, Samsung submitted a new lawsuit requesting the ban on the sale of Apple’s 3G products.

At present, Apple is the most successful in blocking sales of Samsung products. Samsung introduced the Galaxy Tab 10.1N because the German court ruled in September that it would permanently ban the sale of the Galaxy Tab 10.1. Since then, Apple has filed patent infringement allegations in Australia and has also won a ban on Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
