After some time ago reported banned temporarily in Australia, the Samsung again had to accept a court decision in Germany that prohibits the sale of Galaxy Tab 10.1 Europe except Holland. German district court's decision is a request from the party requesting the ban on sales of Apple's Galaxy 10.1 Europe on charges of cheating the Apple iPad.
The court in Germany is believed that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 indeed been violated several patents related to Apple iPad and has ordered a halt to the sale of Samsung Android tablets with 10.1-inch screen is. Besides Samsung also must pay a fine of up to 250,000 euros (about $ 350,000, or approximately 2.6 billion dollars) for each offense committed.
The court also threatened to imprison the Samsung management if it remains in violation to keep selling the tablet in Europe. The Samsung still has four weeks to appeal. However, within four weeks of the decision banning the sale of tablets Android Honeycomb will remain valid.
This decision is considered to have greater impact than was the case in Australia. This is because Europe is the biggest market for Samsung at the moment. Rumored that this new product was launched last week in the UK and has been the best selling tablet iPad 2 months since the launch in March 2011 and there.
